ITU-R RS.1261 The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that spaceborne cloud radar can determine the

2、 vertical profile of clouds and their global distribution; b) that these parameters are very important for determination of the Earths radiation budget and thereby predictions of global warming; c) that measurement of reflectivity from clouds as low as 30 dBZ is necessary; d) that scattering from cl

3、ouds at millimeter wavelengths increases approximately as the frequency raised to the fourth power; e) that worldwide, repetitive measurements of clouds require the use of spaceborne active sensors; f) that the 92-95 GHz range of frequencies would be suitable to satisfy all requirements, including b

5、active spaceborne sensors; j) that Resolution 712 (Rev.WRC-95) of the World Radiocommunication Conference (Geneva, 1995) seeks provision of up to 1 GHz of frequency spectrum around 95 GHz for use by space-based active sensors; k) that the 92-95 GHz band is allocated to the fixed, mobile, fixed-satel
