  abstract = {{T}he {E}uropean {S}pace {A}gency ({ESA}) {S}oil {M}oisture and {O}cean {S}alinity ({SMOS}) has been providing the longest consistent data record of passive {L}-band (1.4 {GH}z) observations for more than ten years. {SMOS}, as well as the {NASA} missions {SMAP} and {A}quarius have demonstrated the interest of {L}-band observations for land, ocean and cryosphere studies. {T}he continuity of {L}-band observations must be assured taking into account that the spatial resolution (~ 40 km) of {SMOS} and {SMAP} is too coarse for some applications. {D}isaggregation strategies can be implemented but using airborne data, we show that the quality of the downscaled data cannot match that of an instrument with higher native resolution. {T}he goal of the {SMOS}-{HR} ({H}igh {R}esolution) mission is to ensure the continuity of {L}-band observations while increasing the native resolution to 10 km. {SMOS}-{HR} will carry an array of ~ 230 antennas to perform aperture synthesis. {T}he antenna distribution has been optimized to reduce the aliasing in the reconstructed images and {SMOS}-{HR} will incorporate advanced on-board {R}adio {F}requency {I}nterferences ({RFI}) mitigation techniques.},
