Physically-based active-passive modelling and retrieval for SMAP soil moisture inversion algorithm
2015 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2015The NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission is designed to produce high-resolution (9 km) global mapping of surface soil moisture based on L-band radar and radiometer measurements. The multi-scale measurements are combined using time-series of active passive microwave data to retrieve the statistical regression parameters (α, β) from ...

2010 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2010
In this paper, we describe our approach to simulate realistic L-band brightness temperatures to be measured by the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission. These realistic simulated measurements are crucial because they provide a quantitative basis by which we develop and improve our pre-launch retrieval algorithms for soil moisture at 9-km and 36 ...

2016 Progress in Electromagnetic Research Symposium (PIERS), 2016
The zeroth-order radiative transfer model, also known as the tau-omega model, has been used extensively for decades in passive remote sensing of soil moisture. One approach, commonly known as the Dual Channel Algorithm (DCA), to retrieve soil moisture from this model is to make use of the H- and V-polarized brightness temperature (T B ) channels ...
