Open full text 0 citations

Abstract

Spectrum analysis and correlation methods used to measure the horizontal and vertical velocities of radar echo signals are examined mathematically. Topics include scattering/reflection geometry, monostatic versus bistatic operation, spaced antenna measurements, radar interferometry and the Doppler method. Vertical velocity determination, optimum pointing angles, and time resolution for periodic variations are also investigated.
