Doppler-scatterometer for a sea state and near surface wind speed determination

<title>Synergy of altimeter signal amplitude and phase information for evaluation of sea wave and atmospheric stratification conditions</title>

“…The results of last researches have shown the necessity joint processing of the results of altimeter and scatterometer observations [1], or of the results of Doppler radar and scatterometer observations [2,3]. It is necessary for unambiguous and high precise solutions of an inverse-problem of a sea surface microwave active remote sensing, applied to the determination of sea surface wave and near surface wind fields' parameters, as well as for estimation of atmospheric stratification condition.…”
