Abstract :
The abilities of information about parameters of steady-state waviness extracting from pulse altimeter signals are described. Abilities of onboard equipment allow measuring the parameters of reflected signals and making secondary processing. The parameters of fluctuating of reflected signals are evaluated during the processing, and then a period of sea wave, wave height, and water particles velocity are calculated. This information helps us to correct the measured height and velocity components.
