Optimization of the NRCS Sampling at the Sea Wind Retrieval by the Airborne Rotating-Beam Scatterometer Mounted Under Fuselage [PDF]
The optimization of normalized radar cross-section (NRCS) sampling by a scatterometer allows an increase in the accuracy of the wind retrieval over the water surface and a decrease in the time of the measurement.

Optimization of Airborne Scatterometer NRCS Semicircular Sampling for Sea Wind Retrieval
Airborne scatterometer capability depends on not only the device’s technical characteristics but also the scheme used for surface observations. Typically, a rotating-beam scatterometer uses a circular scheme for sampling normalized radar cross-sections ...

JOINT OFFSHORE WIND FIELD MONITORING WITH SPACEBORNE SAR AND PLATFORM-BASED DOPPLER LIDAR MEASUREMENTS [PDF]
The increasing demand for renewable energy resources has promoted the construction of offshore wind farms e.g. in the North Sea. While the wind farm layout consists of an array of large turbines, the interrelation of wind turbine wakes with the remaining
