Focusing on how these various disciplines contribute to the development of a sensor used in space, this key text:
  • Explains how mathematics, physics, business, and engineering-based concepts are used to develop and design a sensor which complies with a set of specific requirements.
  • Discusses essential topics such as cost estimation, signal processing, noise reduction, filters, phased arrays,  radars, optics, and radiometers used in space operation.
  • Covers a range of typical sensors used in the spacecraft industry such as infrared, passive microwave, radars and spacebased GPS sensors.
  • Concludes each chapter with examples of past and current orbiting sensors such as DSP, SBIRS, CHAMP, LANDSAT, and GOES to illustrate how concepts are applied.
