A compact receiver system for simultaneous measurements of mesospheric CO and O3 [PDF]
Geoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems, 2016 During the last decades, ground-based microwave radiometry has matured into an established remote sensing technique for measuring vertical profiles of a number of gases in the stratosphere and the mesosphere. Microwave radiometry is the only ground-based

The correlation of visibility noise and its impact on the radiometric resolution of an aperture synthesis radiometer [PDF]
, 2000 The correlation between the visibility samples' noise of an aperture synthesis radiometer are required for the computation of the recovered temperature noise of a given pixel and of the improvement introduced by baseline redundance.

Adaptive filter for microwave radiometry
Electronics Letters, 1970 An adaptive filter, which combines the advantages of both short (about 0.5 s) and long (about 2 min) integrating time constants, is described. The recording time constant will be long for a steady level of input signal, but will proportionally shorten when there is a change in the average level of the input signal. If steady conditions continue after a

Modification of black-body radiance at low temperatures and frequencies
, 2010 In contrast to earlier reports, where the spectrum of the {\sl energy density} of photonic black-body radiation modified by SU(2) effects was discussed, we discuss the low-frequency spectrum of the {\sl radiance} at temperatures ranging between 5 and 20 ...
