Study of effects of rocky terrain on microwave line of sight link at C, J, X and Ku bands

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of rocky terrain on microwave link is manifested in the fading of the signal which takes place due to the destructive interference between the signals reaching the receiver by direct path and that of reflected from the rocky terrain.

Antenna temperature deterioration of aperture calibration due to millimeter wave radiometer non-linearity

TL;DR: In this article, a millimeter wave radiometer, which relies on the accurate linearity of its input-power and output-voltage, interpolates antenna temperature with a two-point calibration.

On the radar cross section data binning

TL;DR: The authors revisit the radar cross section data binning step as a stochastic estimation procedure as part of a larger study of spaceborne scatterometers and their applications in oceanographic and meteorological applications.

Forest understorey study with synthetic aperture radar data

L.R. Cadete
TL;DR: In this article, a pathfinder study has been recently launched to analyse SAR data sensitivity to the understorey presence in maritime pine stands of central Portugal and to assess the possibilities of extracting biophysical information for this forest stratum.

Cassini RADAR: investigation of Titan's surface parameters by means of Bayesian inversion technique and gravity-capillary waves modelling of liquid hydrocarbons surfaces Ventura Bartolomeo, Casarano Domenico, Notarnicola Claudia Member, IEEE, Posa Francesco, Member, IEEE and The Cassini Radar Science Team

TL;DR: The investigation of Titan's surface parameters (physical and morphological) has been carried out by the means of Bayesian inversion technique, and simulations of the wave motion for the hypothesized hydrocarbons liquid surfaces has been performed.

A proposed spectral form for fully developed wind seas based on the similarity theory of S. A. Kitaigorodskii

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the data for the spectra of fully developed seas obtained for wind speeds from 20 to 40 knots as measured by anemometers on two weather ships.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relation of raindrop-size to intensity

TL;DR: The applicability of such results to conditions of natural rainfall has been thrown in doubt as discussed by the authors, and the results have been found to be affected by the drop-size and velocity of the artificial rains applied.

A well‐calibrated ocean algorithm for special sensor microwave / imager

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe an algorithm for retrieving geophysical parameters over the ocean from special sensor microwave/imager (SSM/I) observations, based on a model for the brightness temperature T(sub B) of the ocean and intervening atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new model for sea clutter

TL;DR: In this article, first-order scattering theory is applied to obtain sea clutter cross sections in terms of mean-squared height spectrum of the sea surface, and the results are in remarkably good agreement with observations for vertical polarization at P-, L-, C-, and X -bands.
