To improve efficiency of non-invasive monitoring of the internal brain temperature, a small-size single-channel microwave radiothermograph consisting of a miniature radiometer and a radiometric sensor based on a printed antenna was... more
Introduction The principle of action of microwave radiometers is based on recording microwave radiation from biological objects (BO) whose temperature is above absolute zero. Measurements of the intensity of body radiation can be used to... more

In studies of weather changes and, especially, in enhancing the performance of rainfall prediction, it is important to measure the water vapor distribution in the atmosphere. We estimated atmospheric water vapor profiles for fourteen... more
ABSTRACT Currently, there is growing interest among specialists in the use of non-invasive dose-free technologies for diagnosis and monitoring treatment of various diseases. Microwave radiometry enables non-invasive detection of thermal... more
Frequency dependence of brightness temperature (TB) in the range 6–21 GHz is studied as a function of surface roughness, vegetation cover and soil moisture using theoretical models. Frequency dependence of TB is plotted from Multi‐channel... more
In the present study, the effectiveness of nowcasting convective activities using a microwave radiometer has been examined for Kolkata (22.65° N, 88.45° E), a tropical location. It has been found that the standard deviation of brightness... more
Although data available from various earth observation systems have been routinely used in many resource applications, however there have been gaps, and data needs of applications at different levels of details have not been met. There is... more
