Radar-Altimeter-Ground-Processing-Requirement.pdf
This document defines the Fast Delivery Ground Processing Algorithm Requirements for the ERS-1 Radar Altimeter. It does not include the basic tasks of decoding the telemetry stream, and assumes that the relevant parameters have been extracted for ingestion into the algorithms presented here.

RA-Characterisation-Data.pdf
This document can be regarded as a first issue of the long-awaited RA Characterisation Database. It contains values for all parameters which have been requested, except for some special cases which will be explained later. It contains many other parameters as well. For example it also contains all the parameters used in the LRDPF (and referred to in ER-RP-DSF-SY-0007) except for the parameters forseen to be updated frequently, such as the barometric pressure field (which will come from ECMWF).
