Abstract

GNSS-R based soil moisture estimation relies on the correlation map of the direct and the reflected GNSS signals, and obtains the soil moisture parameters through theory model. The normalized power of the reflected signal is analyzed on different soil moisture condition to solve the results through retrieving the soil moisture, and is compared the consistency with conventional humidity measurement results. The result indicates that the GNSS reflected signal can be effective on soil moisture retrieval.
