Gutnik V. Backscattering of radio waves of the shortwave part of the millimeter-wave band by sea surface at breaking sea waves.

Results investigations of radio wave backscattering deculiarities by a sea surface in the shortwave part of the mm-wave band are presented. The refined model of the microwave backscattering by the sea surface has been suggested, around which a comparative analysis of sea radar characteristics of has been performed. It has been demonstrated that the long-wave part of the mm-wave band is preferable for detecting waterborne and low-altitude targets, and the radars of the short-wave part of the mm-wave band with a high resolution as to all the coordinates would be efficient in guidance and self-guidance systems for determination target coordinates, especially the angular ones.
