NOISE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE AVHRR INFRARED CHANNELS

Limitations on the precision of digitized data are identified and discussed. Apart from calibration errors, these sources of uncertainty can be divided into three types of noise; digitization, Gaussian and periodic, each of which behaves differently when data is averaged. An attempt is made to separ...

description Limitations on the precision of digitized data are identified and discussed. Apart from calibration errors, these sources of uncertainty can be divided into three types of noise; digitization, Gaussian and periodic, each of which behaves differently when data is averaged. An attempt is made to separate and quantify these contributions in the infrared channels (3, 4 and 5) of various AVHRR instruments. Typical values of total noise for these channels are also obtained. -Author
