The optimal algorithm of multiband spatio-temporal radiometric signal processing is synthesized. Analytical expressions both for the potential fluctuation sensitivity of the system designed according to the algorithm and for the ambiguity function of multiband radiometric systems are deduced. An example of the theory application is demonstrated.References
