How to assimilate the sea surface mean wind speed of CYGNSS in WRFDA?

Hi everyone:
I am working on assimilating CYGNSS Level 2 sea surface mean wind speed (10-meter winds) into WRFDA using 3DVAR/4DVAR. The raw CYGNSS data is in NetCDF format, and I need to convert it to Little-R format for ingestion into WRFDA. However, I encounter two critical challenges:
1.Unclear FM-code for CYGNSS wind observations in Little-R format.
2.Missing parameters in CYGNSS L2 data: altitude and pressure, which are mandatory fields in Little-R.
Has this issue been previously encountered? Seeking a resolution.
