Envisat ASAR AP Co- and Cross-polar L0 [ASA_APC/APH/APV_0P]

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

The ASAR Alternating Polarization Mode Level 0 (Co-polar and Cross-polar H and V) products contain time-ordered Annotated Instrument Source Packets (AISPs) corresponding to one of the three possible polarisation combinations: HH & HV, VV & VH and HH & VV, respectively.

Description

The echo samples in the AISPs have been compressed to 4 bits/sample using FBAQ. This is a high-rate, narrow swath mode, so data is only acquired for partial orbit segments.

There are two co-registered images per acquisition and may be from one of seven different image swaths. The Level 0 product was produced systematically for all data acquired within this mode. Data Size: 56-100 km across track x 100 km along track There are three AP Mode Level 0 products: - ASA_APH_0P: The Cross-polar H Level 0 product corresponds to the polarisation combination HH/HV. - ASA_APV_0P: The Cross-polar V Level 0 product corresponds to the polarisation combination VV/VH. - ASA_APC_0P: The Co-polar Level 0 product corresponds to the polarisation combination HH/VV= H and H received/V transmit and V received.
