Abstract

Based on deeply analyzing wave-current interaction equations and radar backscattering model of ocean surface, it developed a calculating model of radar backscattering coefficient caused by wave-current interaction on ocean surface.Then the model is compared with the well known Alpers's model through numerical test on calculating radar backscattering coefficient perturbation caused by ocean surface non-even current fields.Furthermore it provided the statistical and analyzing results of the two models' coherence degree. The results show that the two models are coincident.Thus this paper's model can be regarded as a numerical model to study radar's ability for detecting ocean surface non-even current fields.
