The Seasat scanning multichannel microwave radiometer (SMMR): Instrument description and performance
The scanning multichannel microwave radiometer (SMMR) is an imaging 5-frequency radiometer flown on the Seasat and Nimbus-7 earth satellites launched in 1978. It measures dual-polarized microwave radiances from the earth's atmosphere and surface, primarily for the purpose of deriving global and nearly all-weather measurements of sea surface temperature, wind speed, and atmospheric liquid water and water vapor. This paper describes the SMMR instrument and its calibration, antenna pattern measurements, and data processing procedures. Analysis of early data from the Seasat SMMR shows that the expected engineering performance in flight was achieved, and the measurement of sea surface temperature and wind speed with accuracies of 1.5 K and 2 m/s, respectively, may be achievable once the geophysical data processing algorithms and analysis have been completed. 相似文献

Procedures for correcting antenna temperature measurements and retrieving the true brightness temperatures are developed for the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) flown on the Seasat-A and Nimbus-G satellites. These procedures are necessary to meet the measurement accuracies required for deriving sea surface temperatures and wind speeds. It is shown that sidelobe contributions and polarization cross-coupling are major effects to be accounted for, in addition to some unique features of the SMMR instrument such as integration times and antenna scan characteristics. Methods are presented for data averaging and data reformatting, these are to be used with geophysical parameter retrieval algorithms. 相似文献
