NASA NTRS1979

Improved microwave radiometry for remote sensing

Significant improvements in the gain stability and overall performance of microwave radiometers have been achieved with the use of a self-balancing gain modulation technique. This technique, in combination with automatic thermal calibration, is particularly well suited for remote sensing radiometric applications. The essential features of such a radiometer, including typical data obtained from a spaceborne satellite, is presented to show the instrument's utility.

NASA NTRS1977

Remote sensing of earth resources using a spaceborne microwave radiometer

A microwave radiometer was one of five experiments installed onboard the NASA Skylab spacecraft in order to remotely monitor selective earth resources information. The essential features of the radiometer are described, and typical data required in space is also presented in order to illustrate the instrument's utility.
