Data and processing of RFSCAT onboard CFOSAT
2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2016The Rotating fan-beam scatterometer (RFSCAT) onboard the Chinese-French Oceanography Satellite (CFOSAT) is a novel kind of scatterometer whose performance had been preliminarily verified by airborne campaign. In this paper the whole data processing chain that can achieve wind field derivation from original data set transmitted from the scatterometer ...

Simulation and retrieval of CFOSAT at whitecap sea
2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2016Stepped-Frequency Microwave Radiometer (SFMR) measurements and Precipitation Radar (PR) data on tropical rainfall measuring mission (TRMM) are collocated to acquire the normalized radar cross sections (NRCS) at low incidence angles. At the same time, the whitecap coverages are concluded from averaging previous results.

Polar Sea Ice Detection with the CFOSAT Scatterometer
2021 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium IGARSS, 2021Polar sea ice is an important and sensitive indicator of climate change. The scatterometer onboard the China-France Oceanography Satellite (CFOSAT) is a Ku-band rotating fan-beam scatterometer with dual polarization capability and dedicated to the measurement of sea surface wind vectors.

The SWIM instrument, a wave scatterometer on CFOSAT mission
2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2016SWIM is part of the CFOSAT satellite mission payload. It is designed for the measurement of directional ocean wave spectra. It is a Ku-band real-aperture radar with 6 rotating fan-beams pointing near nadir. The main characteristics of the instrument, data, products are presented in this paper, as well as performances estimated from simulations.

Although CFOSAT is a science mission designed to study ocean surface wind and wave conditions, the Ku-band SWIM instrument on board has the capacity to provide Sea Level measurements even if no topographic data are delivered by the mission. At the 2022 OSTST meeting, Faugère et al reported that CFOSAT can provide an interesting set of Sea Level data ...

Using cfosat measurements to improve the ocean current.
2023Although CFOsat is dedicated to wind and wave characterization the Ku altimeter on board can provide Sea level measurements relevant to enrich the Sea Level Anomaly and Ocean Current. Following a first demonstration last year (Faugere et al, 2022), a reprocessing over 2019-2023 has been performed using the latest version of CFOsat processing ...

Status and recent progresses of development of the scatterometer of CFOSAT
2011 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2011In this paper, the status and progress of the scatterometer (SCAT) of the Chinese-French Oceanography Satellite (CFOSAT) will be reported. SCAT/CFOSAT will be the first rotating fan-beam scatterometer (RFSCAT) ever flown on a satellite for global ocean vector wind measurement.

Retracing the Decaying Swell Across the Pacific With CFOSAT SWIM Data
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2022Oceanic swells generated by storms can sometimes propagate over long distances across the oceans. In this study, we propose a new method to retrace the sources and routes of swells generated in the Southern Ocean using the Surface Waves Investigation and Monitoring (SWIM) instrument onboard the Chinese-French Oceanography Satellite ...
