Abstract
The Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) generated by the surrounding environment will significantly reduce the observation efficiency of the large radio telescope. The Tian-Ma Radio Telescope (TMRT) has established a RFI monitoring system to keep watch on its surrounding RFI environment chronically in the L, S, C and X bands. The system consists of antennas, receivers, back-ends and control system. To achieve automatic system operation, we design and implement an automation software based on Tango Controls open source framework. This paper will briefly introduce the TMRT RFI Monitoring System (TRMS), and describe the functional design, architecture design and implementation of the automation software. Finally, with the help of this system, we carry out automatic remote monitoring of the RFI environment around the TMRT in the 1.12—12.4 GHz frequency band, and then analyze and verify the observation results.
期刊介绍：
Many new instruments for observing astronomical objects at a variety of wavelengths have been and are continually being developed. Furthermore, a vast amount of effort is being put into the development of new techniques for data analysis in order to cope with great streams of data collected by these instruments.
Experimental Astronomy acts as a medium for the publication of papers of contemporary scientific interest on astrophysical instrumentation and methods necessary for the conduct of astronomy at all wavelength fields.
Experimental Astronomy publishes full-length articles, research letters and reviews on developments in detection techniques, instruments, and data analysis and image processing techniques. Occasional special issues are published, giving an in-depth presentation of the instrumentation and/or analysis connected with specific projects, such as satellite experiments or ground-based telescopes, or of specialized techniques.
