Deriving Surface Reflectance From Visible/Near Infrared and Ultraviolet Satellite Observations Through the Community Radiative Transfer Model

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
Earth's surface reflectance is an important parameter affecting ultraviolet (UV) and visible (VIS) radiance calculations at the top of the atmosphere because many UV and VIS channels can acquire information about the surface and atmosphere.

Retrieval of the Leaf Area Index from Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Surface Reflectance Based on Unsupervised Domain Adaptation

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Several global leaf area index (LAI) products were generated using neural networks, but the training dataset for the neural networks was sensor specific, and the construction of the training dataset was time consuming.

Lightdrum—Portable Light Stage for Accurate BTF Measurement on Site

open access: yesSensors, 2017
We propose a miniaturised light stage for measuring the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) and the bidirectional texture function (BTF) of surfaces on site in real world application scenarios. The main principle of our lightweight BTF

Position Information From Reflecting Surfaces

open access: yesIEEE Wireless Communications Letters, 2021
In the context of positioning an agent with a single-anchor, this contribution focuses on the Fisher information about the position, orientation and clock offset of the agent provided by single-bounce reflections. The availability of prior knowledge of the agent’s environment is taken into account via a prior distribution of the position of virtual ...

A Hyperspectral Bidirectional Reflectance Model for Land Surface

open access: yesSensors, 2020
A hyperspectral bidirectional reflectance (HSBR) model for land surface has been developed in this work. The HSBR model includes a very diverse land surface bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) database with ~40,000 spectra.

Modeling Snow Surface Spectral Reflectance in a Land Surface Model Targeting Satellite Remote Sensing Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Snow surface spectral reflectance is very important in the Earth’s climate system. Traditional land surface models with parameterized schemes can simulate broadband snow surface albedo but cannot accurately simulate snow surface spectral reflectance with
