Abstract

A X-band ground-based radiometer-scatterometer system (RASAM) is designed for a ground-based microwave remote sensing. By measuring backscattering coefficient (sigma) ⁰, brightness temperature T_Bp and emissivity e_p, active and passive microwave characteristics of ground objects can be obtained. This system operational model uses a combination of two references digital demodulated radiometer with noise scatterometer. This paper describes RASAM design, instrument structure and experiment results.
