Desert Roughness Retrieval Using CYGNSS GNSS-R Data [PDF]

Remote Sensing, 2020
The aim of this paper is to assess the potential use of data recorded by the Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS-R) Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) constellation to characterize desert surface roughness. The study is applied over the Sahara, the largest non-polar desert in the world.

Implementation of a Testbed for GNSS-R Payload Performance Evaluation

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020
The functional performance of space-borne instruments must be validated on ground before and after satellite integration. The effects of radio-frequency interference are also becoming more important, even in protected bands for earth observation. In this

Leveraging the CYGNSS Spaceborne GNSS‐R Observations to Detect Ionospheric Irregularities Over the Oceans: Method and Verification

Space Weather, 2022
The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has significantly facilitated the detection of ionospheric irregularities. Nevertheless, the ground‐based GNSS stations are inhomogeneously distributed around the world with large gaps, especially in the vast

Precision Bounds in GNSS-R Ocean Altimetry

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2014
Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) signals offer a promising opportunity to perform mesoscale altimetry with worldwide coverage using small satellites. However, unlike the signals used in classical altimeters, the GNSS signals have smaller bandwidth and lower transmitted power.

GNSS-R: Operational Applications

, 2003
This paper provides an overview of operational applications of GNSS-R, and describes Oceanpal, an inexpensive, all-weather, passive instrument for remote sensing of the ocean and other water surfaces. This instrument is based on the use of reflected signals emitted from GNSS, and it holds great potential for future applications thanks to the growing ...
