Abstract :
It has been demonstrated that radiometric correction field experiment is very important for the spaceborne sensors to inspect their calibration accuracy. 2011 microwave radiometric correction experiment for the payloads on FengYun-3 meteorological satellites was carried out for two weeks on November at the microwave radiometric correction site of China located in Pu´er. In this paper, the procedure and the data processing approach of the field experiment are described. And the preliminary results are analyzed in the end.
