- Recently Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Reflectometry (GNSS-R) is emerging as an alternative or a complement to classical approaches for Earth remote sensing. GNSS-R techniques can be viewed as a multi-static radar, based on the exploitation of the GNSS signals of opportunity. One of the main advantages that this technique offers, is that with only one passive receiver it is possible to acquire several acquisitions simultaneously, as many as the number of visible GNSS satellites. Initially, GNSS-R was conceived for ocean mesoscale scatterometry and altimetry, but its use has been extended to other fields, such as land applications. Several experiments carried out from aircrafts, towers and balloons, have preliminary demonstrated sensitivity of GNSS-R observations to retrieve land geophysical parameters, such as soil moisture and vegetation biomass.
