Abstract
A system includes a navigation antenna configured to receive first satellite signals transmitted from a first type of satellite in a first frequency band and second satellite signals transmitted from a second type of satellite in a second frequency band and generate RHCP signal responses based on the first and second satellite signals, a plurality of science antennas configured to receive the first satellite signals in the first frequency band and the second satellite signals in the second frequency band as reflected from a ground surface and generate LHCP signal responses and RHCP signal responses based on the first and second satellite signals, and a receiver module including a processing module and a plurality of receivers coupled between the navigation antenna and the plurality of science antennas and the processing module. The processing module is configured to generate telemetry data based on the received LHCP and RHCP signal responses.
