Abstract
This study has demonstrated new approach for simulation of wave refraction pattern in airborne radar data. In doing so, the quasi-linear algorithm used to model significant wave height based on new approach of azimuth cut-off algorithm. The study shows that wave refraction pattern can simulate from AIRSAR and POLSAR data with convergence and divergence spectra energy of 0.84 and 0.4 m2 sec, respectively. In conclusion, modification of conventional azimuth cut-off algorithm can be used to retrieve significant wave height in Cvv- band data under circumstance of wave transformation using first order Partial Differential Equation (PDEs).
