4. Two Bands among Band A, B, C can be observed. May 11, 2011 ACE meeting, M. Suzuki et al Band A Band B Band C Frequency region has been selected by engineering interest, as high as possible, but 625-626 GHz region is the only frequency to measure HCl below 1 THz. At 600 GHz troposphere is opaque in limb. Tsys ~ 350 K, and Noise floor is ~0.4 K, given by

6. version 1.3 SMILES L2 data It is already comparable to other satellite data, Aura/MLS, SciSAt-1/ACE-FTS, ENVISAT/MIAPS, TIMED/SABER etc. 11/07/28 IGARSS2011 Suzuki
7. ver. 1.3 O 3 55 deg < latitude < 65 deg Ref – SMILES (Ref – SMILES) / |SMILES| The SMILES L2 O 3 has a negative bias with respect to ACE-FTS and MLS at around 50 km. However O 3 measurements are well determined within 5% differences at 20-40 km. O
8. ver. 1.3 HCl The SMILES L2 HCl has a negative bias with respect to ACE-FTS and MLS at around 50 km. However it is almost similar to those of the comparison instruments below 45 km. 55 deg < latitude < 65 deg Ref – SMILES (Ref – SMILES) / |SMILES|

10. SMILES is expected to provide break-through data, not the yet another satellite data. such as "Global ClO distribution" SMILES provides global ClO distribution with high precision. Furthermore, measurements of ClO, HCl, HOCl, and HO 2 can provide important insights into the Cly chemistry. ? Santee et al., 2008 ?

14. It was found that there might be jitter among attitude data. ISS attitude data should be corrected, using MAXI-ISS jitter data. 11/07/28 IGARSS2011 Suzuki Fig. 1 Relative difference between MAXI GPS 1pps signal and the ISS clock telemetry data.
15. ISS attitude gives much smooth retrieved profile. After the jitter correction, systematic bias also disappeared. 11/07/28 IGARSS2011 Suzuki Fig. 2 Retrieved O 3 profiles using the SMILES Star Sensor data (left) and ISS attitude data (right).
