Effects of Interferometric Radar Altimeter Errors on Marine Gravity Field Inversion
Sensors, 2020 The traditional altimetry satellite, which is based on pulse-limited radar altimeter, only measures ocean surface heights along tracks; hence, leads to poorer accuracy in the east component of the vertical deflections compared to the north component ...

Optimizing ?0 information from the Jason-2 altimeter [PDF]
, 2009 A radar altimeter's normalized backscatter, ?0, is used in many oceanographic applications, to infer values of wind speed, wind stress, rain rate and the presence of biogenic slicks.

Beyond Exact Repeat Missions: Embracing Geodetic Altimetry for Inland Water Monitoring and Modeling
Journal of Remote SensingSatellite radar altimetry has become an essential tool for hydrological research over the past 2 decades. Unlike imagery that quantifies the water dynamics from the horizontal dimension, altimetry observations deliver vertical information, which is ...

MIMO noise radar - matched filters and coarrays [PDF]
, 2008 Copyright © 2008 IEEEThe noise radar concept can be extended to an array of K transmit antenna and M receive antenna. When independent noise sources are transmitted from each antenna the approach may be viewed as a special case of MIMO radar and matched ...

Parameter estimation for peaky altimetric waveforms [PDF]
, 2013 Much attention has been recently devoted to the analysis of coastal altimetric waveforms. When approaching the coast, altimetric waveforms are sometimes corrupted by peaks caused by high reflective areas inside the illuminated land surfaces or by the ...

The radar signature of the Wind Lens: a less disruptive wind turbine? [PDF]
, 2012 We study the radar signature of a new type of wind turbine, named the Wind Lens. This design includes a flanged shroud around the turbine which concentrates the wind flow past the turbine blades and hence improves the efficiency.

Altimetry-derived surface water data assimilation over the Nile Basin
, 2020 Global hydrological models facilitate studying of water resources and their variations over time. The accuracies of these models are enhanced when combined with ever-increasing satellite remotely sensed data.

Satellite radar altimetry aids seafloor mapping
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1991 The connection between gravity and oceanic water depth was realized more than a century ago. In 1859, J. H. Pratt derived a formula relating anomalous vertical deflection and sea level height on the coast of India to the depth of the adjacent Indian Ocean.
