Abstract
Soil Moisture, Sea Surface Salinity and Sea Ice Extent/Age are important global geophysical parameters which are most effectively measured from space-borne instruments. We discuss an effort to outline an instrument that will extend the data timeline and improve the sensitivity of the measurements and present a new feed antenna that could enable such instrument to achieve wide spectral coverage.
