Satellite radar altimeters play an independent role in ocean remote sensing, while the authors exploited their potential in rain measurement. This paper designs the digital system of the rain mode in an altimeter. In rain mode the altimeter receives the ocean and rain echoes simultaneously, so it can retrieve the rain layer profile without losing surface topography information. An adaptive IF-digital...
Satellite radar altimeters are fundamental tools in microwave remote sensing, but traditionally they were regarded as unsuitable for rain measurement. This paper designs a rain mode on an ocean-dedicating altimeter, taking China's forthcoming HY-2 ALT as a typical example. In rain mode the altimeter receives the surface and rain echoes simultaneously, so it can estimate the rain layer structure without...
