Abstract

A technique of calibrating satellite-borne microwave radiometers for remote measurement of the radio brightness temperatures of ground and celestial objects is considered. The composition and metrological characteristics of standard and prototype instruments developed at the central office of the All-Union Research Institute for Physicotechnical and Radiotechnical Measurements for the purpose of calibrating radiometers on the basis of radio brightness temperatures, instruments for measurement of the parameters of mirror and horn radiometer antennas, and instruments for measurement of the dynamic characteristics of radiometers are presented.
