Description:

The Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS) on board the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) satellite is a total power radiometer and scans across the track with a range of ±52.77° from nadir. It has 22 channels and measures the microwave radiation at either quasi-vertical or quasi-horizontal polarization from the Earth's atmosphere. The ATMS scanning reflector is made of beryllium coated with gold and can have an emission due to the surface roughness. During prelaunch phase, an estimate of the reflector emissivity was not explored. In this paper, a new methodology is developed to assess the antenna emission from the ATMS pitch-over observations.
