Sea surface wind, waves, and currents are the three basic parameters that describe the dynamic process of sea surface, and they are coupled with each other. To more accurately describe large-scale ocean motion and extract the ocean dynamic parameters, we adopt the spaceborne Doppler measurement to estimate the radial Doppler velocity generated by the sea surface motion. Due to the presence of wind and waves, the Doppler spectrum will be formed, shifted and broadened. Pulse-pair phase interference is used to obtain the Doppler spectrum from the sea surface echo. We simulate the Doppler spectrum with different look geometry and ocean states in a spaceborne condition. In this paper, the Doppler centroid variations are estimated after reducing the platform Doppler velocity under different observation conditions. With the increase in wind speed, the measured Doppler shift increases, and the simulated Doppler centroid accuracy is estimated. In addition, the measurement error along the trace direction is at the maximum, and the error in the cross-track is the smallest. At moderate wind-wave conditions, the Doppler velocity offset can be less than 0.1 m/s. |
