A review of RFI mitigation techniques in microwave radiometry [PDF]
Radio frequency interference (RFI) is a well-known problem in microwave radiometry (MWR). Any undesired signal overlapping the MWR protected frequency bands introduces a bias in the measurements, which can corrupt the retrieved geophysical parameters ...

Active-passive microwave scattering in the Antarctica wind-glazed region: an analog for icy moons of Saturn [PDF]
Microwave radiometry and scatterometry, two complementary modes of sensing the composition and structure of the upper meters to hundreds of meters of the subsurface, are often difficult to reconcile, both on the Earth cryosphere and on icy moons of ...
