Effect of sea roughness on bistatically scattered range coded signals from the Global Positioning System
Abstract
A series of aircraft experiments was performed using a specialized GPS receiver and a nadir‐oriented left hand circularly polarized antenna. This apparatus received reflections of the GPS signals from water surfaces under a variety of sea states. The cross‐correlation between the reflected signal and a reference pseudo‐random noise code was recorded as a function of the relative time delay. The shape of this function showed a dependence on the roughness of the reflecting surface. This dependence generally followed that predicted by theory for bistatic scattering of range‐coded signals. Use of this information as a remote sensing technique for the determination of sea state is discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
