Abstract

A stabilized high-resolution X-band radiometer has been designed, constructed, and is presently operating at the Venus Deep Space Station in the Goldstone Deep Space Communications Complex in California. The radiometer is an automatically switched and automatically calibrated noise-adding radiometer and is used for atmospheric propagation research for the Microwave Weather Project. This report describes the radiometer, its sensitivity, and gives examples of its performance.
