Title
Modeling Radar Backscatter From Breaking Waves On The Surface
Abstract
A model for describing radar sea clutter is proposed. It consists of two parts, an oceanographic and an electromagnetic one. The former contains swell, small capillary and gravity waves as well as breaking wave events. The latter combines ray tracing, Bragg scattering and the Method of Moments. It is shown that the combination of the two models is capable of well reproducing several key aspects of radar sea clutter.
