How to Obtain a Detailed SAR Pattern of Currents on the Ocean Surface

Abstract

Mikhail B Kanevsky

At present, the generally accepted method for remote measurement of current velocity on the ocean surface is to determine the Doppler centroid, i.e., the position of the maximum of backscattered radar signal Doppler spectrum (see, for example, [1] and the list of references given there). However, this measurement, generally speaking, is not enough to reconstruct a detailed pattern of the currents.
