In this paper, a large number of quad-polarized SAR images are analyzed to help assess how the standard SAR imaging transformation applies to all polarization channels. Foremost, the azimuth cutoff, a parameter essentially governed by the detected wave motions, is today solely related to radar configuration and the ocean wave spectrum but not to the polarization configuration. As obtained, the analyses based on quad-polarized Radarsat-2 and Gaofen-3 products document the distinct dependence of azimuth cutoff on polarization and incidence angle. Especially for cross-polarized VH measurements, azimuth cutoff estimates are generally larger than copolarized HH ones, the latter already being larger than values estimated under VV configuration. This trend increases with the incidence angle. The systematic comparisons between SAR measurements and simulations further demonstrate that the present SAR nonlinear transformation may not properly take into account the differing coherence time associated with the multi-polarized observation of ocean scenes. In particular, to reproduce the large azimuth cutoff parameters of cross-polarized images, a reduced coherence time shall be expected. This measurable sensitivity shall enhance the capabilities of polarized SAR systems to precisely derive more ocean surface properties, especially the influence of wave breakers, by combining both the copolarization and cross-polarization measurements.

SAR images acquired by multiple sensors are employed, including Sentinel-1(S-1), Envisat/ASAR, Gaofen-3 and Radarsat-2. This thesis reviews the commonly used SAR parameters (NRCS and azimuth cutoff) in the first part. A series of calibration steps are required to obtain a proper NRCS and assessment of NRCS is carried out for S-1wave mode (WV). It turns out that WV is poorly calibrated and is thus re-calibrated to obtain accurate NRCS. Azimuth cut off is demonstrated to be complementary to NRCS and can account for the sea state impact on the wind retrieval. Based on the available fully polarimetric SAR products, azimuth cut off is found to vary greatly with polarizations. The present SAR mapping transformation is sufficient to interpret the co-polarized azimuth cut off, while not for the cross-polarization. With the limitations of SAR imaging in mind, a new parameter is proposed and defined based on the SAR image cross-spectra, termed as MACS. The imaginary part of MACS is found to be a signed quantity relative to the wind direction. Given this dependence, an independent wind retrieval algorithm is expected to benefit. The magnitude of MACS is able to aid for estimate of modulation function of SAR mapping. In addition, MACS also gives promising results regarding the global wave studies. The global signatures of MACS at various wave lengths are well representative of the winds distributions, spatially and seasonally. MACS of long waves shows greater values over the storm tracks while the shorter waves are mostly within the trader winds. These results are expected to help evaluate the model outputs and complement further studies of the global wave spectral climate. Data continuity in the coming 10 years shall extend the study towards longer duration.

The influence of artificial illumination of invar levelling rods / Štefan Rákay in Geodetski vestnik, vol 62 n° 4 (December 2018 - February 2019)

The prevention of inappropriate lighting conditions is important for the correct recording of the image of bar code section. This paper examines the systematic error as a function of the angle of incidence at which an bar code is illuminated by artificial lighting in low light conditions. Further, the procedure of measurements and the analysis of results for the identification of such errors is proposed. The results of experimental measurements highlight the inappropriateness of bar code illumination at an angle of incidence of more than about 45 °. From the practical measurements, it was found that the angle of incidence 55 ° corresponds to an error of about 0.02 mm, which is twice as much as the resolution of the height measurement determined by the manufacturer.

Methods for quantification of systematic distance deviations under incidence angle with scanning total stations / Miriam Zámečníková in ISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing, vol 144 (October 2018)  

Public [article]  inISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing > vol 144 (October 2018) . - pp 268 - 284 Titre : Methods for quantification of systematic distance deviations under incidence angle with scanning total stations Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Miriam Zámečníková, Auteur ; Hans Neuner, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : pp 268 - 284 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Topographie [Termes descripteurs IGN] angle d'incidence [Termes descripteurs IGN] erreur systématique [Termes descripteurs IGN] Multistation [Termes descripteurs IGN] tachéomètre électronique [Termes descripteurs IGN] télémètre laser terrestre Résumé : (Auteur) If scanning total stations (TLS+TS) are used in scanning mode for high accurate engineering applications, the systematic influence of the incidence angle (IA) on the reflectorless distance measurement has to be eliminated. At present, methods for quantifying the systematic distance deviations under IA are missing because the measured points are not reproducible. In this paper, three such methods are presented. They are conditional on the used instruments and the required accuracy. These methods are validated with respect to specified framework conditions. The distance deviations are derived in all three methods as difference between the distance measured with TLS+TS in the scanning mode (DTLS) and the corresponding reference distance (Dref). The Dref is determined in three steps: measurement of a high accuracy network, measurement for determining the starting point of the Dref; object measurement to determine the endpoints of Dref. The corresponding DTLS and Dref are identified by means of the horizontal direction Hz (HzTLS and Hzref) and the vertical angle V (VTLS and Vref), both pairs of angles referring to the same origin marked by the axis of the common coordinate system. Depending on the used method, the Dref is determined with a standard uncertainty of 0.1–0.3 mm (at a distance of 30 m). The quantified influence of IA on the distance measurement of the Leica MS50 at a distance of 30 m to a granite plate varies in the interval of 0.8 mm. The strong variation due to the IA occurs from 0 to 20 gon, its effect is stable from 20 to 60 gon.

Incidence angle dependence of first-year sea ice backscattering coefficient in Sentinel-1 SAR Imagery over the kara sea / Marko P. Mäkynen in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 55 n° 11 (November 2017)  

Public [article]  inIEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing > vol 55 n° 11 (November 2017) . - pp 6170 - 6181 Titre : Incidence angle dependence of first-year sea ice backscattering coefficient in Sentinel-1 SAR Imagery over the kara sea Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Marko P. Mäkynen, Auteur ; Juha Karvonen, Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : pp 6170 - 6181 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image radar et applications [Termes descripteurs IGN] angle d'incidence [Termes descripteurs IGN] coefficient de rétrodiffusion [Termes descripteurs IGN] données polarimétriques [Termes descripteurs IGN] image radar moirée [Termes descripteurs IGN] polarimétrie radar [Termes descripteurs IGN] régression linéaire Résumé : (Auteur) We have studied the incidence angle (θ0) dependence of the sea ice backscattering coefficient (0.°) for Sentinel-1 (S-1) extra wide (EW) mode dualpolarization (HH/HV) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery acquired over the Kara Sea under winter and summer melting conditions. The determination of the 0.° versus θ0 dependence was based on SAR image pairs acquired on ascending and descending orbits over the same sea ice area with a short time difference. The SAR noise floor was subtracted from the HV images. From the image pairs 1.1 by 1.1 km windows representing level first-year ice (LFYI) and deformed first-year ice (DFYI) were manually selected, and a linear regression was fit between the resulting 0.° and θ0 differences of the windows to estimate the slope b1 (dB/1°) between 0.° and θ0. For example, under winter condition b1 for DFYI at HHand HV-polarizations was found to be -0.24 and -0.16 dB/1°, respectively, and b1 for LFYI at HH-polarization was -0.25 dB/1°. It was not possible to determine a reliable b1 for LFYI at HV due to a contamination effect of the S-1 noise floor. The b1 values at HH compared well with previous studies. They can be used to compensate the 0.° incidence angle variation in the S-1 EW SAR images with good accuracy. The HH b1 values are applicable to other S-1 imaging modes and other C-band SAR sensors like RADARSAT-2. Unfortunately, the HV b1 values are specific to the S-1 EW mode due to the noise floor problem.
