An Aircraft Wetland Inundation Experiment Using GNSS Reflectometry
In early May of 2017, a flight campaign was conducted over Caddo Lake, Texas, to test the ability of Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry (GNSS-R) to detect water underlying vegetation canopies. This paper presents data from that campaign and

Precision Bounds in GNSS-R Ocean Altimetry
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.

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

Snow monitoring using GNSS-R techniques
GNSS-R techniques are currently being studied to remotely sense a number of geophysical parameters over different types of surfaces [1-6]. The Interference Pattern Technique (IPT) is based on the measurement of the interference pattern of the GPS direct and reflected signals, after reflecting over the surface, as the GPS satellites move.

Retrieval of Ocean Surface Wind Speed Using Reflected BPSK/BOC Signals
The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has become a valuable resource as a remote sensing technique. In the past decade, the use of reflected GNSS signals for sensing the Earth, also known as GNSS reflectometry (GNSS-R), has grown rapidly.

Study of Delay Drift in GNSS-R Altimetry
Differently to the case of a conventional spaceborne nadir-looking mono-static radar altimeter, where the fly-around time of the pulses remains basically constant (assuming an almost circular orbit around an almost spherical Earth), the bistatic geometry of GNSS-R with the transmitter and the receiver embarked on different satellites imprints a ...

Numerical Computation of the Electromagnetic Bias in GNSS-R Altimetry [PDF]
In radar altimetry, the electromagnetic (EM) bias is originated by the smaller reflectivity of wave crests than troughs; thus, the average sea surface height is underestimated. Bias uncertainty is currently the largest factor in altimetry error budgets.

From GPS Receiver to GNSS Reflectometry Payload Development for the Triton Satellite Mission
The global positioning system (GPS) receiver has been one of the most important navigation systems for more than two decades. Although the GPS system was originally designed for near-Earth navigation, currently it is widely used in highly dynamic ...
