FIR, IIR and Wavelet Algorithms for the Rigorous Filtering of GOCE SGG Data to the GOCE MBW

Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) data are strongly affected by noise and long-wavelength errors outside the satellite measurement bandwidth (MBW). One of the main goals in utilizing GOCE data for gravity field modeling is the application of filtering techniques that c...

description Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) data are strongly affected by noise and long-wavelength errors outside the satellite measurement bandwidth (MBW). One of the main goals in utilizing GOCE data for gravity field modeling is the application of filtering techniques that can remove gross errors and reduce low-frequency errors and high-frequency noise while preserving the original signal. This paper aims to present and analyze three filtering strategies used to de-noise the GOCE Level 2 data from long-wavelength correlated errors and noise. These strategies are Finite Impulse Response (FIR), Infinite Impulse Response (IIR), and Wavelet Multi-resolution Analysis (WL), which have been applied to GOCE residual second order derivatives of the gravity potential. Several experiments were performed for each filtering scheme in order to identify the ideal filtering parameters. The outcomes indicate that all the suggested filtering strategies proved to be effective in removing low-frequency errors while preserving the signals in the GOCE MBW, with FIR filtering providing the overall best results.
