【Abstract】 Based on the radiowave propagation in atmospheric ducts, the theories and methods of estimating atmospheric ducts using radar clutter and GPS signals scattered from sea surface are researched by using experiment examinations. The main topics and results of the study are as follows:1. The basic structure, formative mechanism, cut-off frequencies and critical angles of atmospheric ducts are analyzed. The parabolic equation (PE) and ray-tracing (RT) methods are realized and used to analysis the radiowave propagation characteristics in atmospheric ducts. The results computed by PE are compared with those computed by AREPS software, which show a good agreement. The comparison results provides theoretical bases for atmospheric ducts estimations using radar clutter and GPS signals scattered from sea surface.2. The relative theories of estimating atmospheric ducts using single frequency radar clutter are systematically researched in detail and examined by experiment data. Based on the research, a new algorithm, multi-wave optimization algorithm using multi-frequency radar clutter to estimate atmospheric ducts, are developed. Taking the dual frequency (10525 and 24150 MHz) radar as an example, the new algorithm is realized by using Non-Dominated Sorting in Genetic Algorithms-II (NSGA-II) and multi-objective differential evolution (MODE) algorithm and used to estimate evaporation duct with only one parameter and surface-based duct with four parameters.3. Three models of objective functions used in atmospheric ducts estimations are presented, and the characteristics of the relations between all values of the three models and ducts parameters are systematically analyzed. The three models are respectively used to estimate evaporation duct parameter under different frequencies conditions. The frequency and antenna height that affect the estimation accuracy are analyzed in detail. Moreover, the flexibility and the advantages in improving estimation accuracy of multi-wave optimization algorithm are thoroughly investigated.4. Based on PE, the GPS signals scattered from sea surface are modeled using bistatic radar equation and the forward scattering characteristics of GPS signals. The propagation characteristics are also investigated under evaporation duct, surface-based duct and range-dependent duct. The analysis results theoretically illuminate the feasibility of estimating atmospheric ducts using GPS signals scattered from the sea surface. A high sensitivity GPS receiver is developed to receive and detect the GPS weak signals scattered from the sea surface. The data of GPS signals are processed off line in software receiver and compared with the results simulated according to the bistatic radar equation model.5. A new concept and method, estimating atmospheric ducts using GPS signals scattered from sea surface, is presented for the first time. An experiment campaign is designed and launched at Southeast China Sea to validate the new concept and method. The experiment data are processed and analyzed. And the experiment results demonstrate the feasibility and validity that estimating evaporation duct using GPS signals scattered from the sea surface.
