Abstract :
This contribution deals with the description of the Italian Radio Occultation experiment on board the Indian OCEANSAT-2 Mission. Details of the Italian Radio Occultation Ground Segment and results obtained within the validation activity will be discussed. Atmospheric profiles (in terms of refractivity, temperature, and electron density) obtained processing ROSA raw observations will be presented.
