Abstract :
An airborne L-band aperture synthesis radiometer, HUT-2D, is under development in Helsinki University of Technology, Laboratory of Space Technology (HUT/LST) in co-operation with Ylinen Electronics Ltd. The airborne platform for the instrument will be the HUT/LST remote sensing aircraft, Short SC-7 Skyvan. A four-element subassembly has been manufactured and test measurements are in progress to verify the chosen technology
