Abstract :
The spatial resolution from matched filtering along the track of a supersynthesis radiometer is evaluated with a different baseline off-nadir angle of the interferometer used for the synthesis. A nearly vertical baseline is convenient for the synthesis, but a combination of multiple interferometers is possible to obtain a finer spatial resolution
