PARAMETER Tracker Range
NETCDF NAME range_ku_l1b_echo_plrm (Ku band)
range_c_l1b_echo_plrm (C Band)
DESCRIPTION This parameter is the range measured on-board corrected by all instrumental and geometrical effects such as the USO frequency drift, the internal path correction and the Doppler correction.
UNITS 10-4 meters
An offset of 700,000m to be added to the value read from the NetCDF file.
