Simulations of sea surface reflection for V-band O2 differential absorption radar barometry
This study simulates V-band sea surface reflectance and normalized radar cross-section (NRCS) for sea surface air pressure barometry using a differential absorption radar operating at three spectrally even spaced close frequency bands (65.5, 67.75 and 70.

Developments in target micro-Doppler signatures analysis : radar imaging, ultrasound and through-the-wall radar [PDF]
Target motions, other than the main bulk translation of the target, induce Doppler modulations around the main Doppler shift that form what is commonly called a target micro-Doppler signature.

Incidence angle normalization of Wide Swath SAR data for oceanographic applications
A backscattering trend in the range direction of the signal received by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) in Wide Swath (WS) mode results in a progressive reduction of brightness over images from near to far range, which affects the detection and ...

Compared with co-polarized (HH/VV) normalized radar cross-section (NRCS) backscattered from the sea surface, there is no saturation phenomenon in cross-polarized (HV/VH) NRCS when wind speed is greater than about 20 m/s, so cross-polarized synthetic ...

Sea Ice Concentration Manifestation in Radar Signal at Low Incidence Angles Depending on Wind Speed
In previous studies, the possibilities of Ku-band radar measurements at low incidence angles were investigated for the task of sea ice detection. In this paper, the sensitivity of normalized radar cross-section to sea ice concentration is investigated at
