摘要
Airborne 500-2000-MHz radiometric measurements recorded in high-latitude regions (portions of Greenland, Antarctica, and Northern Canada) are used to provide insight into the radio frequency interference (RFI) environment that can be expected for future radiometer missions operating in this frequency range. Statistics of the RFI environment are reported in terms of the likelihood of a specified bandwidth measurement containing RFI corruption. The results indicate that wideband radiometry from 500 to 2000 MHz is viable for science applications in the majority of the regions surveyed.
