Zhao Liping. The Research on the Scattering Characteristic in the Microwave Remote Sensing[J]. Journal of Remote Sensing, 1987, (3): 229-234. DOI: 10.11834/jrs.1987030.
The research of the radiowave propagation of microwave in remote sening is mainly on the rules of space distribution and time variance of the brightness temperature and scattering coefficient of the ground objects
and the correlation of the property of the ground objects with the propagation parameters is set up. For the past five years
through reasonable selecting of the number of independent samples by using X-band scatterometer system
we have made the precision of the measurement below 2db. The data of the typical ground objects
which are characteristic of the Chinese topographic features
are extensively collected. These ground objects include waters
roads and airfields with the smooth surface; the farmland
sands and seawave with the rough surface; wheat
rice
grassland and woods with the random surface in the mixed medium; houses
rock and hills with the complex mixed surface. The analysis has some to the important quantitative correlation on the base of experimental results. The research on the relation of the scattering coefficient with the soil moisture and its roughness has been made
and the valuable conclusion has been reached. At the same time
the scattering coefficient and its power spectral density are resolved by using the analysis method about the electromagnetic scattering theory
and these have been compared with the measurement results significantly.
