Journal ArticleDOI
Initial Results of the Geostationary Synthetic Thinned Array Radiometer (GeoSTAR) Demonstrator Instrument
Alan Tanner,William J. Wilson,B.H. Lambrigsten,Steven J. Dinardo,Shannon Brown,Pekka Kangaslahti,T. C. Gaier,Christopher S. Ruf,S.M. Gross,Boon Lim,S. Musko,S. Rogacki,Jeffrey R. Piepmeier +12 more
TL;DR: The design, error budget, and preliminary test results of a 50-56-GHz synthetic aperture radiometer demonstration system are presented and one result suggests a hybrid image synthesis algorithm in which long baselines are processed by a fast Fourier transform and the short baselines have their processing handled by a more precise algorithm which can handle small anomalies among antenna and receiver responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

McGill,Dennis L. Hlavka,Leslie R. Lait,Mark R. Schoeberl,John W. Bergman,Henry B. Selkirk,M. Joan Alexander,Ji-Eun Kim,Boon Lim,Jochen Stutz,Klaus Pfeilsticker +34 more
TL;DR: The February–March 2014 deployment of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Airborne Tropical Tropopause Experiment (ATTREX) provided unique in situ measurements in the western Pacific tropical tropopause layer (TTL).
Journal ArticleDOI
The High-Altitude MMIC Sounding Radiometer for the Global Hawk Unmanned Aerial Vehicle: Instrument Description and Performance
Shannon Brown,Bjorn Lambrigtsen,Richard Denning,T. C. Gaier,Pekka Kangaslahti,Boon Lim,Jordan Tanabe,Alan Tanner +7 more
TL;DR: The Jet Propulsion Laboratory's High-Altitude Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit Sounding Radiometer (HAMSR) is a 25-channel cross-track scanning microwave sounder with channels near the 60- and 118-GHz oxygen lines and the 183-GHz water-vapor line that has previously participated in three hurricane field campaigns.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Low noise amplifier receivers for millimeter wave atmospheric remote sensing
Pekka Kangaslahti,Boon Lim,Todd Gaier,Alan Tanner,Mikko Varonen,Lorene Samoska,Shannon Brown,Bjorn Lambrigtsen,Steven C. Reising,Jordan Tanabe,Oliver Montes,Douglas Dawson,Chaitali Parashare +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) for estimating temperature and humidity profiles in the atmosphere and in hurricanes as well as to characterize the path delay error in ocean topography altimetry.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Overview of Temporal Experiment for Storms and Tropical Systems (TEMPEST) CubeSat constellation mission
Steven C. Reising,Todd Gaier,Christian D. Kummerow,V. Chandrasekar,Shannon Brown,Sharmila Padmanabhan,Boon Lim,Susan C. van den Heever,Tristan L'Ecuyer,Christopher S. Ruf,Ziad S. Haddad,Z. Johnny Luo,S. Joseph Munchak,Greg Berg,Timothy Koch,Sid Boukabara +15 more
TL;DR: The Temporal Experiment for Storms and Tropical Systems (TEMPEST) satellite mission as discussed by the authors addresses key science needs related to cloud and precipitation processes using a constellation of five CubeSats with identical five-frequency millimeter-wave radiometers spaced 5-10 minutes apart in orbit.
