Local unified models of backscattering from ocean-like surfaces at moderate incidence angles

6 pages; International audience; In the context of electromagnetic wave backscattering from ocean-like surfaces, by using the SSA-1 model, Bourlier et al. proposed a technique to reduce the number of numerical integrations to two for easier numerical implementation. To be consistent with microwave measurements, closed-form expressions of the Fourier coefficients of the backscattering RCS are obtained. For Gaussian statistics, previous work is extended to kernels of unified models expanded up to the order two, like the SSA2 and LCA2.
