Abstract

A c-band microwave radiometer receiver for river mouth water temperature remote sensing was designed and implemented The developed receiver operated at 5.1GHz frequency with 70MHz bandwidth. It had high gain of 50dB and low noise figure of 2dB. Also we executed efficiency evaluation about detection capability of the receiver with noise source similar input signal. The experiment results showed that the c-band receiver successfully detected the antenna temperature range from 193K to 300K.
