Abstract

In this paper the results of studying the spectral and polarization characteristics. of the signals scattered from surface targets in the wave ranges 35, 4, 3, 0, 8 and 0.4 cm are presented. The mentioned signal parameters are connected with implementation of manoeuvring and vessel propulsion system operation (i.e. caused by vibrations and marine surface disturbance due to vessel motion)
