Numerical computation of the electromagnetic bias in GNSS-R altimetry
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016-01-01)
Article
Open AccessIn radar altimetry, the electromagnetic (EM) bias is originated by the smaller reflectivity of wave crests than troughs; thus, the average sea surface height is underestimated. Bias uncertainty is currently the largest ...
