Concept information
TERME PRÉFÉRENTIEL
KaRIn
DÉFINITION
- Water height is measured by a wide-swath radar interferometer operating in Ka-band. KaRIn (Ka-band Radar Interferometer) has been developed by JPL on the legacy of the American Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) and Wide Swath Ocean Altimeter (WSOA) instruments. It has two transmitting/receiving antennas operating simultaneously and located at either end of a 10 m boom. It is this exact configuration that enables the interferometric measurement needed for the prescribed accuracy, spatial resolution and wide swath of the SWOT mission.
