The current paper will focus on four themes. First it will provide a brief historical and technical overview of the Sentinel-5/UVNS instrument. Second, the key design drivers will be described. Third, the key optical technologies carried on board the instrument will be elaborated. Finally, the paper concludes with a short look at the current state of the instrument’s development cycle.
The satellite will be placed in a Sun-Synchronous Orbit at about 400 Km altitude and14h00 mean local solar time. The payload consisting of a High Spectral Resolution UV Atmospheric LIDar (ATLID), a 94GHz Cloud Profiling Radar (CPR) with Doppler capability, a Multi-Spectral Imager (MSI) and a Broad-Band Radiometer will provide information on cloud and aerosol vertical structure of the atmosphere along the satellite track as well as information about the horizontal structures of clouds and radiant flux from sub-satellite cells.
The presentation will cover the configuration of the satellite with its four instruments, the mission implementation approach, an overview of the ground segment and the overall mission development status.
