摘要
Recent airborne field campaigns making passive microwave measurements have observed some radio frequency interference (RFI) that remained undetected by the kurtosis RFI-detection algorithm. The current pulsed-sinusoidal model for RFI does not explain this anomalous behavior of the detection algorithm. In this paper, a new RFI model is developed that takes into account multiple RFI sources within an antenna footprint. The performance of the kurtosis algorithm with the new model is evaluated. The behavior of the kurtosis detection algorithm under central-limit conditions due to multiple sources is experimentally verified. The new RFI model offers a plausible explanation for the lack of detection by the kurtosis algorithm of the RFI otherwise observed.
