Sentinel-1A - First precise orbit determination results

TL;DR: The 5 cm orbit accuracy requirement in 3D is fulfilled according to the results of the orbit comparisons between the different orbit solutions from the QWG, and an error in the given geometry information about the satellite is found.

First Three Years of the Microwave Radiometer Aboard ENVISAT: In-Flight Calibration, Processing and Validation of the Geophysical Products

TL;DR: In this article, the Envisat microwave radiometer is designed to correct the satellite altimeter data for the excess path delay resulting from tropospheric humidity, and neural networks have been used to formulate the inversion algorithm to retrieve this quantity from the measured brightness temperatures.
