Altimeter + INS/Giant LEO Constellation Dual-Satellite Integrated Navigation and Positioning Algorithm Based on Similar Ellipsoid Model and UKF

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
To solve the problem of location service interruption that is easily caused by incomplete visual satellite environments such as occlusion, urban blocks and mountains, we propose an altimeter + inertial navigation system (INS) + giant low earth orbit (LEO)

Validation of the multi-mission altimeter wave height data for the Baltic Sea region [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2016
We present a complete cross-validation of significant wave heights (SWH) extracted from altimetry data from all ten existing satellites with available in situ (buoy and echosounder) wave measurements for the Baltic Sea basin.

Accuracy of Copernicus Altimeter Water Level Data in Italian Rivers Accounting for Narrow River Sections

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Information about water level is essential for hydrological monitoring and flood/drought risk assessment. In a large part of Italian river network, in situ instruments for measuring water level are rare or lacking.

Towards mmWave Altimetry for UAS: Exploring the Potential of 77 GHz Automotive Radars

open access: yesDrones
Precise altitude data are indispensable for flight navigation, particularly during the autonomous landing of unmanned aerial systems (UASs). Conventional light and barometric sensors employed for altitude estimation are limited by poor visibility and ...

Long‐term Caspian Sea level change

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2017
Caspian Sea level (CSL) has undergone substantial fluctuations during the past several hundred years. The causes over the entire historical period are uncertain, but we investigate here large changes seen in the past several decades. We use climate model‐

Remote Cross-Calibration of Wave Buoys Based on Significant Wave Height Observations of Altimeters in the Northern Hemisphere

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Consistency between national wave buoy networks is extremely important for wave climate studies and verification of global operational wave forecasting systems; however, it is insufficiently investigated.
