  • Abstract
    This paper describes a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sea surface waves simulator. The simulator, based on the velocity bunching (VB) theory, has been developed and implemented modularly and its use can also assist microwave remote sensing courses. The present version of the software is run in classes at National Oceanographic Centre of Southampton (NOCS), UK and at the Universita di Napoli Parthenope, Italy.
