The SMP-32 spectrometer and problems in the development of new-generation multichannel spectrometer systems
Abstract
The SMP-32 multichannel spectrometer system, installed on the Meteor-Priroda satellite as part of the Bulgaria-1300-II instrumentation, is designed to measure solar radiation reflected by the earth surface in the visible and near-IR ranges. The technical characteristics of the system are presented along with a block diagram. Particular attention is given to problems arising in the design of the spectrometer including loss reduction in the optical system, SNR enhancement, equalization of the sensitivity of different channels, and minimization of systematic errors.
