  • Abstract
    The MIR (Microwave Interferometric Reflectometer) is a new dual frequency Global Navigation Satellite Systems Reflectometry (GNSS-R) instrument that implements conventional and interferometric reflectometry, both with GPS and Galileo signals. This paper presents the instrument development progress, mainly in the control part, where a methodology to determine how much the platform attitude will affect the beam steering and a satellite selection algorithm have been developed.
