Interference mitigation in passive microwave radiometry [PDF]
IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2003 Relentless development of the microwave spectrum for telecommunications and other active services enhances the risk of anthropogenic interference to the passive Earth Exploration Satellite Service (EESS). While spectral allocation remains the primary basis for avoiding interference between the passive and active services, it is also prudent to consider

RFI Mitigation in Microwave Radiometry Using Wavelets [PDF]
Algorithms, 2009 The performance of microwave radiometers can be seriously degraded by the presence of radio-frequency interference (RFI). Spurious signals and harmonics from lower frequency bands, spread-spectrum signals overlapping the “protected” band of operation, or out-of-band emissions not properly rejected by the pre-detection filters due to the finite ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission promises quasi‐global monitoring of glacial lakes, yet the elevation difference arising from its Ka‐band radar penetrating lake snow/ice cover remains unquantified. This poses a challenge to assessing their level changes.

Applications of Satellite Microwave Radiometry in Finland
16th European Microwave Conference, 1986, 1986 Data from the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) onboard Nimbus-7 satellite were applied to (a) retrieval of the water equivalent of snow cover, (b) discrimination of forest and surface types, and (c) determination of the near-surface wind speed. Several water equivalent retrieval algorithms were tested by using a four-year SMMR data set.
