As part of the EV-2 Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) mission team, Surrey will be providing the Delay Doppler Mapping Instrument (DDMI) for eight Observatories designed and built by the University of Michigan and Southwest Research Institute (SwRI). Following the success of the GPS Reflectometry Experiment on the UK-DMC 1 satellite launched in 2003, Surrey has developed the SGR-ReSI as a move towards operational reflectometry and other applications. The Space GPS Receiver Remote Sensing Instrument (SGR-ReSI) is a COTS-electronics based GNSS receiver which can support up to eight programmable front-ends. It allows collection of raw sampled data but also is capable of processing the reflections into Delay Doppler Maps in real time. The first flight of the SGR-ReSI will be on the UK TechDemoSat-1 to prove the instrument and its various applications. The SGR-ReSI on CYGNSS has a different configuration to that on TechDemoSat-1 which is needed to focus on the requirements for operational cyclone sensing.
