* Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer

Examples of microwave radiometers on meteorological satellites include the Special Sensor Microwave / Imager, Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer and Microwave Sounding Unit.

When the Nimbus 5 spacecraft launched in 1972, scientists planned for its Electrically Scanning Microwave Radiometer to collect global observations of where and how much it rained across the world.

When Nimbus 7 launched in 1978, technology had improved enough for scientists to distinguish newly formed ( i. e., " first year ") sea ice from older ice, with the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer ( SMMR ) sensor.

* AMSR-E — Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-EOS — measures cloud properties, sea surface temperature, near-surface wind speed, radiative energy flux, surface water, ice and snow.

In the 2001 national assessment, the following four second-grade subjects of BUPT: “ Communication and Information System ”, “ Electromagnetic Field and Microwave Technology ”, “ Signal and Information Processing ” and “ Circuit and System ” were accredited as national-level key subjects.

On September 30, 1956 it connected to the Trans-Canada Microwave Relay System, which allowed Winnipeggers to watch television programing from CBC television on the same day it was broadcast in Toronto and Montreal.

The Engineering labs comprise Electronics, Electrical, Control Engineering, Electromechanical System, Power Electronics, Instrumentation & measurement, Engineering Workshop, Signal Processing, Telecommunications, Microwave & antenna, PLC, Networking, Multimedia and Computer Labs.

:: domestic: Microwave radio relay transmission and coaxial and fiber-optic cable are employed on trunk lines ; considerable use is made of mobile cellular systems ; Internet service is available.

Historically, the word " maser " is derived from the original upper-case acronym MASER, which stands for " Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation ".

Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation ( CMBR ) from outer space, discovered by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, who later won the Nobel Prize for this discovery, is also a form of cosmic noise.

The path loss in other frequency bands ( MW, SW, Microwave ) is predicted with similar methods, though the concrete algorithms and formulas may be very different from those for VHF / UHF.

Since 1978 Microwave sounding units ( MSUs ) on National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration polar orbiting satellites have measured the intensity of upwelling microwave radiation from atmospheric oxygen, which is proportional to the temperature of broad vertical layers of the atmosphere.

Microwave ovens heat foods quickly and efficiently because excitation is fairly uniform in the outer of a dense ( high water content ) food item ; food is more evenly heated throughout ( except in thick, dense objects ) than generally occurs in other cooking techniques.

| Radar Imaging Satellite-1 ( RISAT-1 ) is a state of the art Microwave Remote Sensing Satellite carrying a synthetic Aperture Radar ( SAR ) payload operating in C-band ( 5. 35 GHz ), which enables imaging of the earth surface features during both day and night under all weather conditions.

The recent Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe ( WMAP ) measurements have led NASA to state, " We now know that the universe is flat with only a 0. 5 % margin of error.

About half of the research of the group is in the area of radio astronomy — including research into pulsars, the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation, gravitational lenses, active galaxies and astrophysical masers.

While astronomers are confident of the velocity of the LS, which has been measured against the Cosmic Microwave Background ( CMB ), the nature of what is causing it remains poorly understood.

The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe ( WMAP ) – also known as the Microwave Anisotropy Probe ( MAP ), and Explorer 80 – is a spacecraft which measures differences in the temperature of the Big Bang's remnant radiant heat – the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation – across the full sky.

The WMAP objective is to measure the temperature differences in the Cosmic Microwave Background ( CMB ) radiation.

The Microwave Imaging Radiometer with Aperture Synthesis is an interferometer / imaging radiometer capable of resolving soil moisture and salinity over small regions of surface.

For example, we can only observe one Cosmic Microwave Background, so the measured positions of the peaks in the Cosmic Microwave Background spectrum, integrated over the visible sky, are limited by the fact that only one spectrum is observable from Earth.

A Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit, or MMIC ( sometimes pronounced " mimic "), is a type of integrated circuit ( IC ) device that operates at microwave frequencies ( 300 MHz to 300 GHz ).

WiMAX ( Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access ) is a wireless communications standard designed to provide 30 to 40 megabit-per-second data rates, with the 2011 update providing up to 1 Gbit / s for fixed stations.

Microwave plasma is a type of plasma, that has high frequency electromagnetic radiation in the GHz range.

He believes he is under constant threat from the Microwave Gun, and reads lots of science fiction, since " he had long ago realised that if he was going to find any clues to the whereabouts of the Way Out, the location or identity of the Key, there was a good chance he might get some ideas from that type of writing.
