Radiative Transfer Modeling of Simulation and Observational Data

Radiative Transfer Modeling of Lunar Hyperspectral Data

Introduction: One of the current goals of the Selenoligcal and Engineering Explorer “KAGUYA” (SELENE) and the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M, aboard Chadrayaan-1) missions is the accurate determination of surface composition. These data are being collected with the knowledge that when light interacts with an airless body surface it is either absorbed or reflected in a way unique to each of the most ...

Radiative Transfer Modeling of the Martian Atmosphere

Introduction: Studies of the past and current climate and weather on Mars depend on accurate calculations of the radiative properties of the Martian atmosphere. Atmospheric and Environmental Research, Inc. (AER) is the source of the state-of-the-science radia-tive transfer codes for terrestrial applications [1] and these models are continuously updated and validated [2]. Recently, they have bee...

Combination of Imaging Spectrometer Data and High-Resolution LIDAR Data by 3-D Radiative Transfer Modeling

Coniferous forests represent canopies with a high heterogeneity in the horizontal and as well in the vertical dimension. Consequently the interaction of incident radiation is dominated by the complex 3-D canopy structure and architecture. Radiative transfer approaches based on coupled leaf and canopy radiative transfer models (RTM) still allow the simulation of the multidirectional canopy refle...

Modeling of Power Line Transfer of Data for Computer Simulation

The paper deals with problems of data communication over power lines. This technology is referred to as PLC (Power Line Communication). A wider deployment of this technology in practice is currently hampered by a number of drawbacks. They are, in particular, interference with useful signal on lines, interference radiation, limited range of useful signal, and power grid elements that affect the ...
