Les techniques de télédétection hyperfréquence passive sont basées sur les mesures du rayonnement hyperfréquence émis naturellement par la surface terrestre. Le rayonnement émis est détecté par un radiomètre hyperfréquence et la quantité de rayonnement est exprimée en général comme une température équivalente hyperfréquence (TB) en Kelvin (K). L'avantage principal de l'utilisation de la télédétection hyperfréquence pour l'observation de la Terre réside dans la capacité de l'énergie hyperfréquence à traverser les nuages et certaines formes de précipitations, et contrairement aux techniques de détection visible, elle n'est pas dépendante du soleil comme source d'illumination. 8, record 2, French, - t%C3%A9l%C3%A9d%C3%A9tection%20en%20hyperfr%C3%A9quences%20passives

Microwave sensors are particularly effective for measuring land surface hydrological parameters. Since microwave sensors enable us to observe ground surfaces both day and night, we can observe hydrologic phenomena that show remarkable diurnal variation. Further, an inherent feature of a microwave sensor lies in its wavelength between 1 mm and 1 m (0.3 to 300 GHz of frequency), making it possible to conduct observations without influence from weather and to detect the scattering information not only at the surface, but also in the volume. Furthermore, we can directly observe liquid water having larger relative permittivity than other physical parameters because the scattering of microwaves heavily depends on relative permittivity. There are two types of microwave sensors: a passive microwave sensor that observe weak microwave signals naturally radiated from the Earth’s surface, and an active microwave sensor that measures the backscattering coefficient of the transmitted beam. 2, record 7, English, - microwave%20sensor

La télédétection en hyperfréquences actives est une technique qui permet d'observer la surface de la mer en émettant un signal électromagnétique depuis un satellite en direction de la surface et en détectant la portion de ce signal renvoyée vers le satellite. L'un des avantages de la télédétection active est l'augmentation, d'un à deux ordres de grandeur de la résolution spatiale des images, grâce à la technologie du radar à antenne synthétique (RAAS). 6, record 9, French, - t%C3%A9l%C3%A9d%C3%A9tection%20en%20hyperfr%C3%A9quences%20actives

Les bandes spectrales utilisées en télédétection sont : l'ultraviolet, le visible, le proche infrarouge, l'infrarouge moyen, l'infrarouge thermique et les micro-ondes. Ce sont ces dernières qu'on utilise dans les satellites à radar, comme le satellite canadien RADARSAT-1. Les micro-ondes ont la propriété de traverser les nuages, le brouillard et l'obscurité et donc de permettre la télédétection en tout temps. 7, record 9, French, - t%C3%A9l%C3%A9d%C3%A9tection%20en%20hyperfr%C3%A9quences%20actives

Microwave scatterometer ... measures the microwave scattering or reflective properties of surfaces. It is also non-imaging, and is specifically designed to measure backscattering. This requires that it detect more detailed spectral information than imaging radar but has reduced spatial resolution and aerial coverage. The surface is scanned in two or more directions, usually by multiple sensors. The primary application of microwave scatterometers is to measure wind vectors (that is, speed and direction) over the ocean surface. This is based on the principle of ocean ’roughness’ being caused by wind and resulting in a characteristic surface pattern which may be identified by its scattering properties. 4, record 15, English, - microwave%20scatterometer
