On the GNSS-R Interferometric Complex Field Coherence Time
G. Ruffini, F. Soulat
In this paper we focus on the microwave bistatic scattering process, with the aim of deriving an expression for the interferometric complex field auto-correlation function from a s…
PARFAIT: GNSS-R coastal altimetry
M. Caparrini, L. Ruffini, G. Ruffini
GNSS-R signals contain a coherent and an incoherent component. A new algorithm for coherent phase altimetry over rough ocean surfaces, called PARFAIT, has been developed and implem…
The GNSS-R Eddy Experiment II: L-band and Optical Speculometry for Directional Sea-Roughness Retrieval from Low Altitude Aircraft
O. Germain, G. Ruffini, F. Soulat +3
We report on the retrieval of directional sea-roughness (the full directional mean square slope, including MSS, direction and isotropy) through inversion of Global Navigation Satel…
The GNSS-R Eddy Experiment I: Altimetry from Low Altitude Aircraft
G. Ruffini, F. Soulat, M. Caparrini +2
We report results from the Eddy Experiment, where a synchronous GPS receiver pair was flown on an aircraft to collect sampled L1 signals and their reflections from the sea surface…
GNSS-R: Operational Applications
G. Ruffini, O. Germain, F. Soulat +2
This paper provides an overview of operational applications of GNSS-R, and describes Oceanpal, an inexpensive, all-weather, passive instrument for remote sensing of the ocean and o…
Ionospheric (H-atom) Tomography: a Feasibility Study using GNSS Reflections
Josep Marco, Giulio Ruffini, Leonardo Ruffini
In this report we analyze the feasibility of ionospheric monitoring using GNSS technology. The focus will be on the use of LEO GNSS data, exploiting GNSS Reflections, Navigation an…
