본 논문은 토양 수분 함유량 검출을 위한 L-band 마이크로파 라디오미터의 주파수 선택 및 우수한 수신감도를 위한 하모닉 억압의 헤어핀 필터에 관한 것이다. 전형적인 반파장 공진기가 공진주파수의 배수에서 하모닉을 가지는 것에 비해, 각 부분의 임피던스 비와 전기적 길이 비로써 하모닉 주파수를 조절할 수 있는 SIR을 이용하여 하모닉 억압 특성을 구현하였다. 필터의 하모닉을 효율적으로 억압하기 위해 5단의 헤어핀 필터에는 서로 다른 임피던스 비를 갖는 3종류의 SIR이 사용되었고, 제작된 필터는 1390 [MHz]의 중심주파수의 5배 주파수까지 35 [dB] 아래로 하모닉을 억압하는 특성을 가진다.

Aperture synthesis with platform motion has been presented as a useful tool to achieve the high spatial resolution imaging. Using a motion induced synthetic aperture radiometer (MISAR), a passive microwave image can be achieved with a small number of antennas. Moreover, the MISAR is capable of imaging better than the case without motion, using the same configuration of antenna array. With a platform motion, visibility can be sampled more efficiently, and as a result the imaging performance of the MISAR shows higher quality than the case without platform motion. In this paper, the advantage of MISAR is demonstrated experimentally. Using a laboratory model of inteferometric radiometer, the point source images are obtained under the condition with platform motion and without platform motion. In the experimental results, the point source response of the MISAR shows better quality of sidelobe level and beam efficiency than the case without platform motion.

본 논문에서는 2 안테나 합성 개구 마이크로파 방사계에 있어서 최적의 출력 지향 특성을 얻기 위한 안테나 구성방법에 관하여 검토하였다. 지향 특성이 서로 다른 4 종류의 안테나를 이용한 4가지 구성법의 각각에 있어서 출력의 지향성을 수치계산으로 구하여 주 빔폭, 부 로브의 레벨 및 위치 등을 서로 비교 고찰함과 동시에 그 원인에 대해서도 분석하였다. 개구면의 전류분포가 균일한 안테나로 구성한 경우가 다른 3 종류의 경우보다 아주 우수한 지향 특성을 나타내었다. 특히 부 로브 레벨 및 빔 효율 면에서 현저한 차가 있었다.

The subsystems of two channel correlation radiometer such as RF front-end, IF and LF unit, LO unit, software based I/Q demodulator and complex correlator are characterized and their performance is analyzed in this paper. The limited hardware calibration method and receiver design consideration are discussed. The receiver architecture of 37GHz correlation radiometer is integrated. The designed radiometer employs a single-sideband superheterodyne receiver. The center frequency of the radiometer is 37 GHz and IF center frequency is 1.95 GHz with the equivalent noise bandwidth of 79.6 MHz. The receiver has less than 4.2 dB noise figure which is calculated by the Y-factor method and its gain can be adjusted from 60 dB to 80 dB.

Microwave Radiometry is the spectral measurement of eleclromagnetic radiation at frequency bands in the microwave region. One particular application of Microwave Radiometry is for analyzing temperature difffrentials of inside of human body to detect and diagnose pathologic conditions in which the temperature differentials are related with the symptoms of certain diseases. To accomplish this aim, we propose a new calibration method for estimating subcutaneous temperature by Microwave Radiometer and we also suggest a tumor-imitator phantom structure for simulating heat diffusion propagated by tissues around tumors to evaluate the discernment of brighuless temperature difffrentials.

Using the FSSP-100(FSSP) and Microwave Radiometer (MWR), the fog and clear day characteristics (the size and number concentration of fog particles and the liquid water content) have been measured and analyzed at Daegwallyoung observation site ($37^{\circ}41^{\prime}N$, $128^{\circ}45^{\prime}E$) during 27 - 30 November 2003 (fog day) and 19 January 2004 (clear day). During the fog days, the measured fog-particle size by using FSSP is 0.8~8.4 ${\mu}m$, which is similar to the WMO typical value, the fog number concentration varies from 121 to 200 count ($No./cm^2$) and the fog liquid water content from $0.018g/m^3-0.1g/m^3$ in the site. The precipitable water vapor obtained by the MWR, showing the correlation coefficient $R^2$=0.83 between the total precipitable water vapor obtained from the radio sonde and MWR, shows the larger amount (0.75-8.3 cm) during the fog days than the clear-sky data (0.2 cm).

동아시아 지역의 위성 토양수분 데이터 활용을 위해 Soil Moisture Ocean Salinity (SMOS) 위성에 탑재된 Microwave Imaging Radiometer using Aperture Synthesis (MIRAS) 센서와 Global Change Observation Mission-Water (GCOM-W1) 위성에 탑재된 Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) 센서 기반 토양수분 데이터를 자료동화 데이터인 Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS)를 기준 값으로 Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) 기법과 회귀식을 활용하여 보정하는 연구를 수행하였다. 동아시아 지역에서 발생하는 전파간섭의 영향을 고려하여 토양수분 산출에 적합하다고 판단되는 Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), Data Quality indeX (DQX) 한계값과, 합성일수를 제시하였다. 보완된 위성 토양수분 데이터를 지점 토양수분 데이터와 비교한 결과 상관계수가 평균 27%, 11% 증가하였고, Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD, 평균제곱근 편차)는 평균 61%, 57% 감소하였다. 추가적으로, 보정된 위성데이터를 GLDAS 토양수분 데이터와 비교했을 때, 보정된 MIRAS 및 AMSR2 데이터는 한반도의 80% 및 90%의 지역에서 상관계수가 증가하였으며, 한반도 전역에서 RMSD가 감소하였다. 본 연구를 통해 향후 MIRAS 및 AMSR2 위성 데이터를 융합하여 각 위성의 토양수분 데이터를 보완 할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였다.

The spatial variability of the L- and C- band large scale remotely sensed soil moisture data, obtained during tire Southern Great Plain 1999 (SGP'99), was characterized. The results demonstrate that soil moisture data using L-band show the break in statistical symmetry (multiscaling behavior) with the variation of scale of observation, which is similar to that of the soil property such as sand content. Also, soil moisture data using C-band show single scaling behavior with the variation of scale of observation, which Is similar to that of the vegetation condition.

Land surface hydrological conditions have been considered to play an important role in the global and regional climate variability. Especially, snow, soil moisture, surface temperature, vegetation and rain are the key parameters which should be observed in the global scale. In this paper, new algorithms for these land surface hydrological parameters have been developed by introducing frequency and polarization dependencies of these parameters in the microwave radiative-transfer equations. The algorithms were applied to the TRMM Microwave Radiometer. (TMI) and validated by using the ground data obtained in the Tibetan Plateau. The estimated snow, soil moisture, surface temperature, water content of vegetation and rain patterns corresponded reasonably to the observed ones.

Analyses of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) microwave radiometer (TMI) and precipitation radar (PR) data show that the rainfall inhomogeneity, represented by the coefficient of variation, decreases as rain rate increases at the low resolution (the footprint size of TMI 10 GHz channel). The rainfall inhomogeneity, however, is relatively constant for all rain rates at the high resolution (the footprint size of TMI 37 GHz channel). Consequently, radiometric signatures at lower spatial resolutions are characterized by larger dynamic range and smaller variability than those at higher spatial resolution. Based on the observed characteristics, this study develops a low-resolution (${\sim}40{\times}40$ km) rainfall retrieval algorithm utilizing realistic rainfall distributions in the a-priori databases. The purpose of the low-resolution rainfall algorithm is to make more reliable climatological rainfalls from various microwave sensors, including low-resolution radiometers.
