ABSTRACT Yang, C.-S. and Ouchi, K., 2017. Application of velocity bunching model to estimate wave height of ocean waves using multiple synthetic aperture radar data. In: Lee, J.L.; Griffiths, T.; Lotan, A.; Suh, K.-S., and Lee, J. (eds.), The 2nd International Water Safety Symposium. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 79, pp. 94–98. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. The purpose of this study is to investigate the images of ocean waves produced by synthetic aperture radar (SAR) through the image modulations based on the normalized radar cross section (NRCS) and wave orbital motions, leading to the estimation of ocean wave height. The former is known as the tilt or NRCS modulation and the latter as velocity bunching. In general, the dominant contribution to the image modulation of range travelling waves is the NRCS modulation, and that of azimuth travelling waves is the velocity bunching mechanism. In this study, these two wave imaging mechanisms are investigated using the airborne Pi-SAR...
