The HY-2A satellite was first launched in August of 2011,the microwave scatterometer as one of the main loads, is primarily applied in sea surface wind observation. HY-2A satellite scatterometer used two pencil beam circle scan system, and the radar worked in Ku band. The paper illuminates the scatterometer's system composition, main parameter, the in-orbit pretreatment and the results in observation to typhoon.
