Response characteristics of radio spectrometers of the Superconducting Submillimeter-Wave Limb-Emission Sounder (JEM/SMILES)

The Superconducting Submillimeter-Wave Limb-Emission Sounder (SMILES) observes vertical profiles of atmospheric minor constituents related with stratospheric and mesospheric chemical processes. The retrieved profiles contain some error originated from the response characteristics of radio spectromet...

Description
Summary:	The Superconducting Submillimeter-Wave Limb-Emission Sounder (SMILES) observes vertical profiles of atmospheric minor constituents related with stratospheric and mesospheric chemical processes. The retrieved profiles contain some error originated from the response characteristics of radio spectrometers of the SMILES instrument. The on-orbit properties are necessary to be characterized and be modeled, in order to minimize the retrieval errors.
