The Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for the Earth Observing System (AMSR-E) had been operated in special slow rotation mode to obtain continuous brightness temperatures for the inter-comparison with those of AMSR2 on the Global Change Observation Mission-Water (GCOM-W) for three years. Although its observation coverage is sparse and some calibration uncertainties exist, the data are still very...
Based on sparsity or compressibility of microwave radiation images, Compressive Sensing in this paper is adopted to achieve microwave radiation imaging in order to reduce the complexity and hardware cost of the imaging system and get the image of high spatial resolution. Compared with the common wavelet basis, differential matrix is proposed to sparsely represent microwave radiation images. OMP algorithm...
The Compact Ocean Wind Vector Radiometer (COWVR) is new type of conical sensor ideal for small satellite implementation. This paper provides an overview of the COWVR sensor, mission and provides perspectives for the future of this technology to enable low-cost sustainable passive microwave observations into the next decade.
There are three retrieval algorithms developed for the HY-2A Atmospheric Correction Microwave Radiometer (ACMR). The validation Results of these retrieval algorithms and corresponding products (the wet tropospheric path delays) are presented. Comparisons are made between HY-2A ACMR and various sources including Jason2 Advanced Microwave Radiometer (AMR), global climatological model (ECMWF).
The Meteor-M N 2 spacecraft with microwave radiometer MTVZA-GY has been launched on July 8, 2014 on sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of 830 km. MTVZA-GY is a 29 channel microwave imager/sounder for remote sensing of the ocean and land surface parameters as well as for measuring total atmospheric water vapor content, total cloud liquid water content, air temperature and humidity profiles. MTVZA...
TEMPEST-D will demonstrate technology for 6U-Class nanosatellites to advance NASA's Earth Science Goals. It will also reduce risk, cost, and development time for future constellations of small satellites to perform Earth Science measurements. It will raise the TRL of a millimeter-wave radiometer instrument from 6 to 7, representing the first on-orbit demonstration of 35-nm InP HEMT-based millimeter-wave...
