Abstract:

This paper presents the results of the processing of the data acquired with the Airborne Microwave Imaging Radiometer with Aperture Synthesis, the European Space Agency's airborne 2-D aperture synthesis radiometer, in a circular flight over the sea in the vicinity of Helsinki (Finland). The goal of the analysis of these data is the detection of the galactic glint on the sea surface. These results are the first measurements with an L-band 2-D aperture synthesis radiometer that show the signature of the galaxy signal reflected on the sea surface.
