This paper presents the in-flight charge-coupled device (CCD) dark characterization of the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) Ozone Mapping Profiler Suite (OMPS). Data from OMPS's three different CCD detector arrays have been collected to characterize in-flight detector behaviors. It is of our primary interest in the evolution and trend of the dark current as well as the signal distribution...
The Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS), launched on-board the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership Spacecraft (S-NPP) on October 28, 2011, has been in operation for more than one year. It continues 40 years ozone study missions by providing the S-NPP science community with data products of ozone in the Earth's atmosphere. The sensor as well as the associated mission data processing system,...
The dark signal on an Ozone Mapper Profiler Suite (OMPS) charge-coupled device (CCD) results when electrons are thermally emitted into the conduction band of pixels in the active and storage regions. It effectively adds offsets to the photon-generated pixel counts and therefore impacts the Sensor Data Record (SDR) performance. This paper presents OMPS on-orbit results from dark current and electrical...
