\begin{equation}\label{eq:system_equivalent_flux_density}  SEFD = {\frac{T_{sys}}{\frac{\eta_a A}{2k_B}}}  \end{equation}  where $T_{sys}$ is the system temperature including contributions from receiver noise, feed losses, spillover, atmospheric emission, galactic background and cosmic background, $k_B = 1.380 \times 10^{-23}$ Joule $K^{-1}$ is the Boltzmann constant, $A$ is the antenna collecting area (thus we could also write $\pi \cdot D^2$), and $\eta_a$ is the antenna efficiency with$\eta_a = \eta_{\text{surface efficiency}} \cdot \eta_{\text{aperture blockage}} \cdot \eta_{\text{feed spillover efficiency}} \cdot \eta_{\text{illumination taper efficiency}}$ (\citet*{antenna}).  \subsection{Minimize Operations Costs}  The operations cost is a complex problem divided in the sub-problems in this section.  \subsubsection{Minimize Maintenance Costs}
