Description We have detected a total of 48 bursts of FRB 20220529 using the Parkes UWL receiver, with 29 of them detected during full polarization observations. Our previous cooperating observations of FAST and Parkes for FRB 20220529 have revealed significant variations in flux distribution during different active periods. However, only 3 bursts from Parkes have been observed simultaneously with FAST, one of which has the potential to improve the spectrum limits of repeating FRBs by more than an order of magnitude. To further investigate FRB 20220529, we have scheduled regular FAST observations every fortnight, tracking the source for 20 minutes each time. Additionally, we have been granted another 10 hours of FAST time to facilitate simultaneous observations of FRB 20200529 using both the FAST and Parkes telescopes. Therefore, we propose to continue monitoring the source of FRB 20220529 using the Parkes UWL receiver, ensuring high-time resolution and employing full-polarization observations to: (1) detect more bursts using the Parkes UWL receiver, with corresponding simultaneous observations from FAST, in order to obtain robust constraints on the radiation spectrum of repeating FRBs; (2) explore additional clues regarding the active periods of FRB 20220529; (3) study the microstructure of the bursts.
