abstract = {This paper describes a comprehensive observational filter
for satellite infrared limb sounding of gravity waves. The
filter considers instrument visibility and observation
geometry with a high level of accuracy. It contains four
main processes: visibility filter, projection of the
wavelength on the tangent-point track, aliasing effect, and
calculation of the observed vertical wavelength. The
observation geometries of the SABER (Sounding of the
Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry) and HIRDLS
(High Resolution Dynamics Limb Sounder) are mimicked.
Gravity waves (GWs) simulated by coupling a convective GW
source (CGWS) scheme and the gravity wave regional or global
ray tracer (GROGRAT) are used as an example for applying the
observational filter. Simulated spectra in terms of
horizontal and vertical wave numbers (wavelengths) of
gravity wave momentum flux (GWMF) are analyzed under the
influence of the filter. We find that the most important
processes, which have significant influence on the spectrum
are the visibility filter (for both SABER and HIRDLS
observation geometries) and aliasing for SABER and
projection on tangent-point track for HIRDLS. The vertical
wavelength distribution is mainly affected by the retrieval
as part of the "visibility filter" process. In addition, the
short-horizontal-scale spectrum may be projected for some
cases into a longer horizontal wavelength interval which
originally was not populated. The filter largely reduces
GWMF values of very short horizontal wavelength waves. The
implications for interpreting observed data are discussed.},
