DOPPLER FREQUENCY SHIFT OF H.F. TO S.H.F. RADIO WAVES RETURNED FROM THE SEA

Abstract

A study was made of HF to SHF radio waves returned from the sea. The radio waves coherently backscattered from the sea waves show a Doppler frequency shift, the value of which is in a good agreement with the one calculated on the ground of the velocity of the sea waves having a length L equal to lambda/2. The experimental results concerning the radio frequencies of 28, 415, and 6,800 mc are discussed. (Author)
