Question: How can we learn if planets have an atmosphere?
Send a space probe from Earth to the far side of the planet in question and send a known radio frequency back to Earth.
If the planet has no atmosphere the radio signal received on Earth will travel on a straight line
As the signal grazes the planet’s Limb it’s radio signal is occulted (thus radio occultation)
…. but if there is an atmosphere the ray will be bent!

Measure the Doppler frequency shift of the received radio signal on Earth.
Question: But how do we know if the ray is bent?
For a straight ray the Doppler shift is caused only by the relative motion of the transmitter relative to the receiver - and can be predicted based on orbital mechanics For a bent signal the Doppler shift will noticeably different than
predicted based on orbital mechanics only!

Planetary Radio Occultation
Radio occultation was first applied to Planetary atmospheres by teams at Stanford U. and NASA/JPL

Subsequently RO was used to study the atmospheres of many planets

Occultation Geometry
• During an GPS occultation a LEO ‘sees’ the GPS rise or set behind Earth limb while the signal slices through the atmosphere
Occultation geometry
• The GPS receiver on the LEO observes the change in the delay of the signal path between the GPS SV and LEO
• This change in the delay includes the effect of the atmosphere which delays and bends the signal

Deriving Bending Angles from Doppler• The projections of satellite orbital motion of transmitter and
receiver along the ray path produces a Doppler frequency shift• After correction for clock and relativistic effects, the Doppler
shift, fd, of the transmitter frequency, fT, is given as

From Doppler + orbits we obtain bending as a function of impact parameter

Define the refractional radius x=nr, where n=1+N*10-6
Now we have a profile of refractivity as a function of “x”We compute the “mean sea level height” of the observation: hmsl=x-Rc-G (where Rc is radius of curvature, and G is the geoid height)
![Page 18: Radio Occultation Atmospheric Profiling with Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS)](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/56649db45503460f94aa439b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Steps taken in determining “MSL” altitude z• Determine the lat/lon of the ray path perigee at the‘occultation point’ (that point where the
excess phase exceeds 500 meters)• Compute the center of sphericity (C) and radius of curvature (Rc) of the intersection of the
occultation plane and the reference ellipsoid at the assigned lat/lon. • Do the Abel inversion in the reference frame defined by the occultation plane and C.• Now height r is defined as the distance from the perigee point of the ray path to C.• G is the geoid correction. We currently use the JGM2 geoid.
The geometric height in the atmosphere is computed :z = r - Rc - G

Evolution of forecast skill for the northern and southern hemispheres: 1980-2001. Anomaly correlation coefficients of 3, 5, and 7-day ECMWF 500-mb height forecasts for the extratropical northern and southern hemispheres, plotted in the form of running means for the period of January 1980-August 2001. Shading shows differences in scores between hemispheres at the forecast ranges indicated (from Holingsworth, et al. 2002).
