  4. 3. SMOS satellite hardware anomaly prediction methods based on Earth radiation environment data sets

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Aleksi Walden; [2016]
    Keywords : SMOS; Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity; satellite; MIRAS; Microwave Imaging Radiometer with Aperture Synthesis; ESAC; hardware anomaly; prediction; radiation environment;

    Abstract : SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) is ESA's Earth Explorer series satellite carrying the novel MIRAS (Microwave Imaging Radiometer with Aperture Synthesis) interferometric synthetic aperture radar. Its objective is monitoring and studying the planet's water cycle by following the changes in soil moisture levels and ocean surface salt concentrations on a global scale. READ MORE

  5. 4. Long-term Stability Analysis of Antenna Temperature & Brightness Temperature from ESA's SMOS Satellite

    University essay from KTH/Geodesi och geoinformatik

    Author : Lotta Rehn-Molin; [2011]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The European Space Agency’s Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite is designed to accurately detect the energy of the electromagnetic radiation naturally emitted from Earth, from which the level of soil moisture and ocean salinity content can be derived. Studies of these two geophysical parameters will increase the knowledge of the Earth’s water cycle and improve the understanding of the climate. READ MORE
