abstract = {Coherent emission from the magnetospheres of compact
objects, such as radio pulsarsand likely fast radio burst
and long period transients, varies on short (”fast”)
time scales. Ob-servations of these sources occur primarily
between 100 MHz and 10 GHz. Furthermore, particleshowers
from cosmic rays impacting Earth’s atmosphere generate
radio pulses on nanosecond-scales, which are detectable
below 1 GHz. Radio frequency interference negatively impacts
thescience of fast transients. It can overwhelm the desired
astrophysical signal, leaving the latter un-detected, and
introduce orders of magnitude more false positives than true
positives. But mostimportantly, developing RFI mitigation
techniques diverts person-hours away from
scientificinvestigations of these interesting events.},
