摘要:
本文基于Amarouche的二阶理论回波模型,导出了带有偏度系数的二阶理论回波模型;针对HY-2A卫星高度计波形特点,引入了奇异值分解滤波,并根据最大似然估计算法反演参数的不同得到6种重跟踪方案;利用其中的五参数方案处理该波形数据,获得海面散射点高度概率密度函数中偏度的合理取值为0.15;将结果分别与浮标、Jason-1和HY-2A IDR有效波高对比,分析6种方案反演有效波高的准确度,确定了MLE4_SVD(波形重跟踪之前进行滤波)对HY-2A 高度计重跟踪更适合反演有效波高。
Abstract:Adding skewness, a new second order echo model was derived according to the one of Amarouche. With respect to characteristics of HY-2A altimeter waveforms, six retracking schemes were derived with singular value decomposition filtering and different parameters wanted based on maximum likelihood estimation; After processing the data with five-parameter scheme, the proper skewness of elevation probability distribution function of scattering points was 0.15. According to comparisons between significant wave height from the six schemes and that from buoy, Jason-1 and HY-2A IDR, the accuracy of the schemes were analyzed, and the scheme MLE4_SVD (singular value decomposition filtering is conducted before retracking) was the better one for retrieving significant wave height from HY-2A altimeter retracking.
