On 5 July 2021, China launched the world’s first early morning orbit meteorological satellite, which was equipped with China’s newest-generation microwave instrument, the Microwave Temperature Sounder-3 (MWTS-3). MWTS-3 has 17 detection channels, which can detect temperature profiles from near the ground to approximately 2 hPa. However, similar to the newest-generation microwave temperature instruments in other countries, MWTS-3 may also suffer from striping noise. In this paper, a principal component analysis (PCA) is combined with ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) to extract the striping noise from the brightness temperatures observed by MWTS-3, and a comparative analysis is performed with its predecessor (MWTS-2). This paper analyzes the characteristics of the striping noise of both instruments and its possible impact on their observations. The results show that the striping noise of MWTS-3 has been significantly reduced in most of the 17 channels. In particular, the striping noise of MWTS-3’s channel 3 is reduced by nearly half compared to the channel of MWTS-2 with the same frequency. Furthermore, the interchannel correlations for MWTS-3 are significantly lower than those for MWTS-2. After noise mitigation, the interchannel correlations of both MWTS-2 and MWTS-3 are obviously reduced. In addition, striping noise mitigation can reduce observation errors to some extent, especially for channels above the middle troposphere. |
