This study addresses the spatial resolution enhancement of synthetic microwave radiometer observations obtained by the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) L-Band Radiometer. An antenna pattern deconvolution method is used together with an iterative regularization scheme to reconstruct the brightness field at enhanced spatial resolution. Results obtained processing both synthetic and actual SMAP measurements show that sharper edges and coastlines can be reconstructed in a very effective way.

Abstract

This study addresses the spatial resolution enhancement of synthetic microwave radiometer observations obtained by the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) L-Band Radiometer. An antenna pattern deconvolution method is used together with an iterative regularization scheme to reconstruct the brightness field at enhanced spatial resolution. Results obtained processing both synthetic and actual SMAP measurements show that sharper edges and coastlines can be reconstructed in a very effective way.
