Abstract
Concept of new low-orbit system “Radiomet” is offered. This system is intended to global radio occultation monitoring and uses signals of radio navigation satellites passing through lower atmosphere and ionosphere. Authors of the concept – Russian organizations FSUE “RISDE” and IRE RAS.
“Radiomet”, in comparison with existing system “Formosat-3” (COSMIC), should provide more than twice higher quantity of atmospheric parameters measurements per day, higher speed of final data deliver and some other significant improvements.
