Abstract

China Advanced Microwave Remote Sensor is a new sensor in which active and passive mode sensors are working simultaneously. There are three operation modes that are the combination of altimeter, scatterometer, and radiometer. The sensor generates various types of data from various measurement functions at the same time. It is very necessary to manage and process these data by data fusion techniques. With the fusion of this Multimode Microwave Remote Sensing data, it is possible to get more information than in single sensing mode, to calibrate each sensor and to meet multipurpose missions
