Abstract

The paper consists of two parts. In the first part the main characteristics of heavy sea are discussed that are essential for radar observation at grazing angles, the sea surface spike characteristics are analyzed in the framework of the statistical theory of random process surges above some boundary, the sea surface shadowing function is considered. In the second part the radar spike characteristics of sea backscattering at frequencies of 10.0, 35.0, 75.0 and 140.0 GHz are analyzed.
