Dual-beam interferometry for ocean surface current vector mapping
The recent use of along-track interferometry (ATI) in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has shown promise for synoptic measurement of ocean surface currents. ATI-SARs have been used to estimate wave fields, currents, and current features. This paper describes and analyzes a dual-beam along-track interferometer to provide spatially resolved vector surface velocity estimates with a single pass of an...
متن کاملMapping Ocean Winds by Broadband Acoustic Interferometry
Mapping the wind over vast ocean areas is a very important practical problem, especially at high winds. Satellite measurements using scattering of electromagnetic waves from the rough ocean surface are extremely useful; however, the cross section for this scattering saturates at high winds, when wind speed measurements are most valuable. On the other hand, the same mechanism that precludes use ...
متن کاملWind Mapping by Ocean Acoustic Interferometry
The field of surface wind blowing over the vast ocean areas is an important parameter for numerical models used for weather forecasts. Surface wind is currently measured from satellites. This provides necessary global coverage; however, measurements of high winds meet some difficulties due to weak dependency of the radarand radiometric signals on the wind velocity at high winds. In [1] a new me...
متن کاملLaser micromachining and information discovery using a dual beam interferometry
Lasers have proven to be among the most promising tools for micromachining because they can process features down to the size of the laser wavelength (smaller than 1 micrometer) and they provide a non-contact technology for machining. The demand for incorporating in-situ diagnostics technology into the micromachining environment is driven by the increasing need for producing micro-parts of high...
متن کاملContouring by electronic speckle pattern interferometry employing dual beam illumination.
In this paper we extend and study the method for generating contours of diffuse objects employing a dual beam illumination coupled with electronic speckle pattern interferometry. The sensitivity and the orientation of the contour planes are analyzed. A novel method for tilting the planes of contours and experimental results incorporating phase shifting and fringe analysis are also presented. Th...
