摘要: In this paper we present an analytic expression for the cross-correlation function of signals received by spaced antennas scattering from atmosphere with horizontally and/or vertically anisotropic irregularities. We demonstrate that our is equivalent to one Briggs [1984] obtained through heuristic arguments; also show how parameters in Briggs's are related describe (1) orientation, shape, and size irregularities; (2) turbulent flow; (3) radar. Finally, introduce alternative approach (different full correlation analysis) estimating horizontal winds turbulence.
