Download or read book Microwave Propagation and Remote Sensing written by Pranab Kumar Karmakar and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because prevailing atmospheric/troposcopic conditions greatly influence radio wave propagation above 10 GHz, the unguided propagation of microwaves in the neutral atmosphere can directly impact many vital applications in science and engineering. These include transmission of intelligence, and radar and radiometric applications used to probe the atmosphere, among others. Where most books address either one or the other, Microwave Propagation and Remote Sensing: Atmospheric Influences with Models and Applications melds coverage of these two subjects to help readers develop solutions to the problems they present. This reference offers a brief, elementary account of microwave propagation through the atmosphere and discusses radiometric applications in the microwave band used to characterize and model atmospheric constituents, which is also known as remote sensing. Summarizing the latest research results in the field, as well as radiometric models and measurement methods, this book covers topics including: Free space propagation Reflection, interference, polarization, and other key aspects of electromagnetic wave propagation Radio refraction and its effects on propagation delay Methodology of estimating water vapor attenuation using radiosonde data Knowledge of rain structures and use of climatological patterns to estimate/measure attenuation of rain, snow, fog, and other prevalent atmospheric particles and human-made substances Dual/multifrequency methodology to deal with the influence of clouds on radiometric attenuation Deployment of microwaves to ascertain various tropospheric conditions Composition and characteristics of the troposphere, to help readers fully understand microwave propagation Derived parameters of water, free space propagation, and conditions and variable constituents such as water vapor and vapor pressure, density, and ray bending

Download or read book Foundations of Atmospheric Remote Sensing written by Dmitry Efremenko and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theoretical foundations of atmospheric remote sensing are electromagnetic theory, radiative transfer and inversion theory. This book provides an overview of these topics in a common context, compile the results of recent research, as well as fill the gaps, where needed. The following aspects are covered: principles of remote sensing, the atmospheric physics, foundations of the radiative transfer theory, electromagnetic absorption, scattering and propagation, review of computational techniques in radiative transfer, retrieval techniques as well as regularization principles of inversion theory. As such, the book provides a valuable resource for those who work with remote sensing data and want to get a broad view of theoretical foundations of atmospheric remote sensing. The book will be also useful for students and researchers working in such diverse fields like inverse problems, atmospheric physics, electromagnetic theory, and radiative transfer.

This book was released on 1969 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The expansion of telecommunication services into the millimeter wave region prompts a careful look at the limitations of the atmosphere that can give rise to severe signal degradations. In Part I the loss and scatter mechanisms in the 10- to 40- GHz range are examined. It is concluded that there is a need for further theoretical and experimental work on the atmospheric propagation properties in order to support the engineering efforts in designing reliable, useful systems. In Part II the discussions are extended to the 40- to 75 -GHz region where absorption by oxygen dominates. In this region, communication through the atmosphere is not practical; however, the oxygen absorption has a great potential for remote sensing of atmospheric variables, and for special (short-range communication) applications. Unsolved problems of the propagation medium are discussed as a basis for formulating proposals; and the objectives of an experimental program for studying oxygen dispersion and absorption are given.
