METHOD OF REMOTE DETERMINATION OF THE RELATIVE DIELECTRIC PERMEABILITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT UNDER THE ATMOSPHERE-OCEAN BORDER

摘要

FIELD: physics.;SUBSTANCE: monitored portion of the sea surface is irradiated with microwave radio waves on oblique polarization, the backscattered signal is recorded simultaneously on vertical and horizontal polarizations, then the polarization ratio is calculated, according to which the relative dielectric constant of the medium is calculated under the atmosphere-ocean boundary.;EFFECT: increasing the accuracy of measurements due to the fact that the values of the specific effective scattering area for different polarizations are determined simultaneously.;1 cl
