Microwave Remote Sensing Equipment

马萨诸塞大学的微波电子组在微波材料、器件、电路和系统领域建立了强有力的研究项目，特别强调可用于遥感地球表面地球物理参数的精密微波仪器。微波遥感实验室计划开发一种特殊用途的多频率相干雷达，可用于测量海洋表面洋流。这笔拨款提供设备，以支持开发该仪器所需的研究，并建立相干多频率雷达测量海洋表面洋流的能力。

The Microwave Electronics Group at the University of Massachusetts has established strong research programs in the areas of microwave materials, devices, circuits, and systems with special emphasis on precision microwave instruments that can be used to remotely sense geophysical parameters on the Earth's surface. The Microwave Remote Sensing Laboratory plans to develop a special purpose, multifrequency coherent radar that can be used to measure ocean surface currents. This grant provides equipment to support the research needed to develop this instrument and to establish the ability of coherent multifrequency radars to measure ocean surface currents.
