Research abstract
A tunable microwave radiometer capable of measuring atmospheric temperature and moisture is proposed. Radiometer operating frequency bands will include the water vapor and oxygen absorption lines. Other design objectives include, light-weight (portable), accurate thermal control of critical system electronics, computer control of operating frequency with an accuracy of 1 MHz, laptop computer data acquisition and data processing to achieve a radiometric measurement accuracy of 0.2 K or better.
