Title
Polarimetric analysis of the dependency of backscattering from ocean surface on wind direction
Abstract
The dependencies of the backscattering from the ocean surface on the wind direction are analyzed by using the Pi-SAR under weaker wind condition (5 m/s) than the former analysis under stronger wind as 14 m/s. In the X-band HH polarization, the dependency of the normalized cross section (NRCS) on wind direction depends on the incidence angle, differently from the former analysis. In the X-band VV polarization, the NRCS represents weak incidence angle dependency as same with the former analysis. As a result, the dependency of the polarization ratio (PR) in the X-band on the wind direction also depends on the incidence angle. In the L-band, the dependencies of the NRCS and the PR are also weak, same as the former analysis.
