Abstract
The CubeSat Radiometer Radio Frequency Interference Technology Validation (CubeRRT) mission is developing a 6U CubeSat system to demonstrate radio frequency interference (RFI) detection and filtering technologies for future microwave radiometer remote sensing missions. CubeRRT will perform observations of Earth brightness temperatures from 6–40 GHz using a 1 GHz bandwidth tuned channel and will demonstrate on-board real-time RFI processing. The system is currently under development, with an expected launch date in mid-2018 followed by a one year period of on-orbit operations. CubeRRT spacecraft and radiometer instrument testing as well as the mission concept of operations are described in this paper.
