For the purpose of drawing out the technological criteria for the development of an Low Earth Orbit Meteorological Satellite some characteristics of infrared and microwave sensors on the payload were analysed by approaching theoretically. In addition, the channel requirements and interface requirements of the microwave sensors equipped on the payloads of the existing foreign Low Earth Orbit Meteorological Satellites were analysed with respect to the development of an Earth Orbit Meteorological Satellite payload. In this paper, the multipurpose satellite bus and the CAS 500 platform as the interface requirements of an Low Earth Orbit Meteorological Satellite, and core subsystem and principle functional requirements of a satellite control system were systematically described.
