Abstract
The performances of the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer ( IASI) which is under development at the laboratories of the French Nat ional Space Agency and Italian National Space Agency have been evaluat ed. An error analysis has been carried out on the basis of the expecte d radiometric noise. To this end, a linear form of the radiative trans fer equation has been formulated for the direct and simultaneous estim ation of temperature, water vapour and ozone profiles.
