Abstract :
An airborne mm-waveband dual frequency radar system for oil-spill detection on the sea surface is presented. The implemented design of microwave components, magnetron transmitters, antenna systems, receivers, and real-time digital signal processing computer boards is described along with methods of analysis for backscattered radio emission.
