Application of radiophotonics methods and devices in multifrequency microwave remote sensing radiometric systems

Abstract

The article considers the possibility of using methods and devices of radio-photonics in the composition of microwave radiometric systems for remote sensing of the atmosphere in order to significantly improve the basic tactical and technical characteristics of microwave radio-measuring equipment. The analysis of possible options for the use of radio photonics devices as part of multi-frequency microwave radiometric systems is carried out. The results of the structural study of a promising microwave radiometric system for remote sensing of the atmosphere are presented.
