Abstract
This work analyses the spectral structure of the sea clutter obtained from temporal sequences of radar images of the sea surface. The images were acquired by ordinary marine radars, which work in X-band and horizontal polarization. The study analyses the different contributions to the sea clutter spectrum due to those phenomena, such as ocean waves, speckle due to sea surface roughness, etc. that causes the final clutter image in the radar screen.
