In-Orbit Calibration of FengYun-3C Microwave Radiation Imager: Characterization of Backlobe Intrusion for the Hot-Load Reflector

This study presents a correction algorithm to remove the backlobe intrusion from the hot-load reflector of microwave radiation imager (MWRI) on-board China FengYun-3C (FY-3C) meteorological satellite. Discontinuities in the radiometric gain of MWRI, due to inaccurate backlobe spillover of the hot-lo...
