Abstract

The invention provides a spaceborne radar altimeter method and system. The method comprises the following steps: setting a coding signal pulse sequence as a periodic transmission sequence, and enabling any pulses to be in an orthogonal relation; setting a pulse repetition frequency on the zebra map, and enabling the set pulse repetition frequency to control nadir echo and interference side high area echo to be received by a radar receiver at the same time, wherein the waveform of radar emission signals corresponding to the nadir echo and the interference side high area echo is different; obtaining bottom-looking radar altimeter echoes and side-looking radar altimeter echoes with time aliasing based on the setting of the coded signal pulse sequence and the setting of the pulse repetition frequency, wherein the bottom-looking radar altimeter echoes and the side-looking radar altimeter echoes obtained at the same moment are orthogonal; and based on the acquired time-aliasing echo of the bottom-looking radar altimeter and the time-aliasing echo of the side-looking radar altimeter, extracting echo signals of the bottom-looking radar altimeter and echo signals of the side-looking radar altimeter respectively so as to realize the height measurement function of the bottom-looking altimeter and the side-looking altimeter.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of spaceborne radar, in particular, to a spaceborne radar altimeter system and method, and more specifically, to a signal coding-based interferometric synthetic aperture radar side-looking altimeter and radar bottom-looking altimeter two-in-one systems and methods. Background technique [0002] Satellite altimetry technology is one of the important components of the global ocean observation system. At present, the altimetry satellites in orbit in my country mainly include Haiyang-2 (HY-2) and so on. Traditional radar altimeters are bottom-looking altimeters, which can only produce one-dimensional elevation profiles. In recent years, the interferometric synthetic aperture radar side-looking altimeter has been extensively studied at home and abroad, a typical system such as the US surface water and ocean topography (SWOT, the surface water and ocean topography) satellite. [0003] However, it should ...
