Abstract
Provides an overview of some recent developments in active microwave remote system systems at JPL. The authors describe the preliminary engineering and scientific results from the two recent flights of the Spaceborne Imaging Radar-C/X-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SIR-C/X-SAR) on the space shuttle Endeavor. The key features of the radar design are summarized and the potential applications of the radar results to Earth science are described. The author also describes the recent progress in the development of interferometric SAR for high resolution topography mapping. The principle of this technique and results from airborne experiments are presented. Finally, development of meteorological radars for rain and cloud measurements is discussed. The design of an airborne rain mapping radar that was developed to support the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission is summarized. In addition, the design and development of an airborne 94 GHz cloud mapping radar are discussed.<>
概述了JPL有源微波远程系统的一些最新进展。作者介绍了奋进号航天飞机上的星载成像雷达- c / x波段合成孔径雷达(SIR-C/X-SAR)最近两次飞行的初步工程和科学结果。总结了雷达设计的主要特点，并介绍了雷达结果在地球科学中的潜在应用。本文还介绍了用于高分辨率地形测绘的干涉SAR的最新进展。介绍了该技术的原理和机载实验结果。最后，讨论了用于雨和云测量的气象雷达的发展。总结了为支持热带雨量测量任务而研制的机载雨量测绘雷达的设计。此外，还讨论了机载94 GHz云测绘雷达的设计与研制。
