Recent developments in altimeter design for NASA's Ocean Topography Experiment and the Navy's Remote Ocean Sensing System have included enhancements such as dual frequency operation, a variable-bandwidth chirped pulse, a flexible waveform with a high pulse-repetition-frequency burst, and a 16-bit 80186 microprocessor tracker. The new designs, which represent modifications to the proven Seasat and Geosat altimeters, have made it possible to configure a multipurpose instrument for Spectrasat that operates at Ku band as an altimeter and wave spectrometer and at C band as a synthetic aperture radar.
