The thermal radio emission from the Moon provides important information on the properties of the lunar regolith. With model fitting, it is possible to estimate the geometrical and physical properties of the lunar regolith based on multiband images of the brightness temperature distribution of the lunar surface. The microwave radiometers mounted on both ChangE-1 and ChangE-2 has obtained the brightness temperature distribution at frequencies 3.0GHz, 7.8GHz, 17.35GHz and 37GHz. Also, ground-based observations were carried out with several radio telescope arrays at frequencies 610MHz, 1.067GHz, 1.4GHz, 2.3GHz and 8.4GHz. Here we report some preliminary results of the brightness temperature distributions derived from these observations.
