  • Abstract
    In this article the authors give the analysis factors that cause errors of radio-brightness temperature measurement during the space monitoring of the Earth by on-board radiometers, methods of ground and on-board calibrations, and the example of evaluation of the radio-brightness temperature measurement by the on-board radiometric complex.
