Optimization of Airborne Antenna Geometry for Ocean Surface Scatterometric Measurements

Optimization of Airborne Antenna Geometry for Ocean Surface Scatterometric Measurements

We consider different antenna configurations, ranging from simple X-configuration to multi-beam star geometries, for airborne scatterometric measurements of the wind vector near the ocean surface. For all geometries, track-stabilized antenna configurations, as well as horizontal transmitter and rece...
