Abstract :
GLORI (GLObal navigation satellite system Reflectometry Instrument) is a new receiver dedicated to the airborne measurement of surface parameters such as soil moisture and biomass above ground, as well as sea state (wave height and direction) above oceans. The instrument is based on the PARIS concept [1] using both the direct and surface-reflected L-band signals from the GPS constellation as a multistatic radar source. A test campaign has been performed in November 2014, and the preliminary results show a great potential for reflectometry applications.
