In the frame of the study "Innovative Radar Altimeter Concepts", founded by the European Space Agency (ESA), the authors analyzed potential advanced measurement concepts for radar altimeters of future generation, studied the feasibility of the identified techniques and proposed a design for an instrument based on the most promising system concept. This paper summarizes the major results of the study.
