摘要

The concept of SAR Altimetry has found so far itsrnimmediate application and interest among the usersrnprincipally over open ocean and coastal zone domains.rnBut a new applicative territory remains still basicallyrnunexplored: the inland water theme.rnIndeed, the SAR/SARin technology looks veryrnattractive for inland water users thanks to the resolutionrnshrinkage in along-track direction that will allow now tornmonitor more efficiently small water bodies and tornreduce the land contamination from the off-nadir landrntargets.rnFurther, with respect to the SAR mode, the SARinrnMode has the additional advantage of:rn1) a more robust on-board tracking lock systemrnand a four time longer receiving window thatrnenables the radar to follow better the very steeprntopographic reliefs without loss of tracking,rn2) the possibility to infer the echo origin’s anglernand distinguish between nadir and off-nadirrnreturn.rnThe current Delay/Doppler processing, that is actuallyrnapplied over open ocean, is suitable as well for inlandrnwater studies, provided that:rn1) a weighting function is applied in azimuthrnbefore the beam forming operation is executed,rnin order to limit the azimuth ambiguities orrn“ghosting” effect.rn2) an oversampling at least by factor 2 is appliedrnduring the range compression in order tornproperly sample the specular echoes.rnOn top of this, clearly a standard open ocean SAR Echornphysically-based model (like SAMOSA or CNES/CPPrnModel) is not always suitable for inland water studiesrnbecause of the very peaky waveforms from still waters.rnFor this scope, we developed a re-tracking scheme ablernto change and adapt the model’s waveform to specularrnwater conditions (still water) or diffusive waterrnconditions (rough water).rnIn SAR mode, thanks to the high instrumental PulsernRepetition Frequency and to an accurate Delay/DopplerrnProcessing, the real antenna beam-width (with an alongtrackrnfootprint of 16 km) can be split in a series ofrnSynthetic Doppler Beams, each one with a footprint ofrn300 meters.rnBecause these Doppler Beams are synthetic, they can bernsteered to any point of the overflown ground-track andrnhence virtually a SAR Altimeter has the potential tornprovide an altitude measurement at any desired surfacernlocation along the ground-track.rnBecause rivers and small lakes are very localizedrntargets, it seems sensible, in case of application of SARrnAltimetry over inland water domain, to steer all thernDoppler Beams exactly in the middle of the river/lake’srnwater body in order to get a water level measurementrnthe most clean and uncontaminated possible.rnA secondary option could be to over-sample thernriver/lake’s crossing, fixing surface locations along thernlake/river’s cross at a space distance lesser than 300rnmeters (the intrinsic CryoSat’s along track resolution) inrnorder to increase the number of available waterrnmeasurements at the lake/river’s cross.rnFor the first time, this concept will be attempted andrnimplemented for a series of selected rivers/lakes targets.rnThe current work is a feasibility study preparatory forrnthe data exploitation of the Sentinel-3 TopographyrnMission over inland water.
