Integrated microwave power sensor

open access: yesElectronics Letters, 1995
A new MMIC compatible sensor that measures RF power transmitted over a 50 /spl Omega/ coplanar waveguide is presented. The sensor is based on the thermoelectric effect in AlGaAs and GaAs/AlGaAs micromachining technology is used for realisation. A sensitivity of 1.1 V/W has been achieved with a reflection coefficient of 0.1 at 10 GHz, by a first ...

Snow stratigraphic heterogeneity within ground-based passive microwave radiometer footprints: implications for emission modeling

open access: yes, 2014
Two-dimensional measurements of snowpack properties (stratigraphic layering, density, grain size and temperature) were used as inputs to the multi-layer Helsinki University of Technology (HUT) microwave emission model at a centimeter-scale horizontal ...

Global evaluation of fast radiative transfer model coefficients for early meteorological satellite sensors [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques
RTTOV (the Radiative Transfer for TOVS code, where TOVS is the TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder) coefficients are evaluated using a large, independent dataset of 25 000 atmospheric model profiles as a robust test of the diverse 83 training profiles ...

Microwave Photonics for Optical Sensors

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics, 2017
[EN] This paper presents a review and discussion of the applications of Microwave Photonic techniques and functionalities to the field of optical fiber sensors. A specific end-to end model for its characterization is presented here for the first time that yields the sensitivity of the different figures of merit in terms of measurand variations ...

Improving the altimetric rain record from Jason-1 & Jason-2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dual-frequency rain-flagging has long been a standard part of altimetric data analysis, both for quality control of the data and for the study of rain itself, because altimeters can provide a finer spatial sampling of rain than can passive microwave ...

Microwave gyroscope?novel rotation sensor

open access: yesMicrowave and Optical Technology Letters, 2000
High performance microwave gyroscope (MG) is theoretically developed for the first time to our knowledge. MG is based on Sagnac effect in microwave ring resonator (RR), where a specially taylored phase shifter (PS) on the basis of surface acoustic waves is inserted. Due to that beat frequency becomes proportional to square (or cubic) root upon rotation
