Abstract
SDGSAT-1 was launched in November 2021, and TIS (Thermal infrared sensor) is a major instrument onboard this satellite. An analysis of the radiometric calibration and noise performance of the TIS has been carried out in the thermal vacuum chamber before launch in order to ensure that it meets the requirements. The prelaunch test results show NEdT (noise equivalent temperature difference) is 0.034 K, 0.047 K and 0.076 K@300 K for the three bands, respectively. The maximum fitting residuals are less than 0.5 K at measured blackbody temperatures. In addition, this paper also discusses the dependence between TIS performance and instrument temperature and focal plane array (FPA) temperature. The good radiometric and noise performance of TIS demonstrates it has potential to provide high resolution thermal remote sensing data in urban heat island, and other environmental issues research.
