Radio-frequencyinterference(RFI)affectsgreatlythequalityofthedataandretrievalproductsfromspace-bornemicrowaveradiometry.AnalysisoftheAdvancedMicrowaveScanningRadiometerontheEarthObservingSystem(AMSR-E)AquasatelliteobservationsrevealsverystrongandwidespreadRFIcontam-inationsontheC-andX-banddata.Fortunately,thestrongandmoderateRFIsignalscanbeeasilyidentifiedusinganindexonobservedbrightnesstemperaturespectrum.ItistheweakRFIthatisdiffi-culttobeseparatedfromthenaturesurfaceemission.Inthisstudy,anewalgorithmisproposedforRFIdetectionandcorrection.Thesimulatedbrightnesstemperatureisusedasabackgroundsignal(B)andadepartureoftheobservationfromthebackground(O-B)isutilizedfordetectionofRFI.ItisfoundthattheO-Bdeparturecanresultfromeitheranaturalevent(e.g.,precipitationorflooding)oranRFIsignal.AseparationbetweenthenatureeventandRFIisfurtherrealizedbasedonthescatteringindex(SI).ApositiveSIindexandlowbrightnesstemperaturesathighfrequenciesindicateprecipitation.IntheRFIcorrection,arelationshipbetweenAMSR-Emeasurementsat10.65GHzandthoseat18.7or6.925GHzisfirstdevelopedusingtheAMSR-EtrainingdatasetsunderRFI-freeconditions.ContaminationofAMSR-Emeasurementsat10.65GHzisthenpredictedfromtheRFI-freemeasurementsat18.7or6.925GHzusingthisrelationship.ItisshownthatAMSR-EmeasurementswiththeRFI-correctionalgorithmhavebetteragreementwithsimulationsinavarietyofsurfaceconditions.
