Assessment of back-end RFI mitigation techniques in passive remote sensing

Radio-Frequency Interference (RFI) is a growing problem specially for those systems that work with low power signals such as passive remote sensing instruments. Consequently, RFI mitigation techniques are currently under development. This works aims at evaluating back-end mitigation algorithms in terms of their probability of detection and mitigation performance. Results show that Wavelet Denoising (WD), and Multiresolution Fourier Transform (MFT) are the best techniques in most scenarios, specially for GNSS-based instruments.
