Description: The term maritime observation has been deliberately chosen to encapsulate
both the concept of remote sensing of the sea surface and maritime surveillance.
The two scenarios are significantly different in terms of applications
related to them although they share a fundamental common ingredient, which
is the sea surface. The presence of the sea surface characterizes uniquely the
radar echoes and the way they must be processed either when some sea surface
parameters must be estimated or when targets must be detected or identified.
The use of radar for maritime observation finds its roots in the early days of
radar when radars were installed on ships as support for the navigation and
for maritime surveillance purposes. In fact, the ability of radar to operate in
all weather/all day conditions made it appealing to a number of applications,
from civil to military scenarios.
The interaction of radar microwave signals with the sea surface is very
complex and it requires a good understanding of basic physics of backscattering
phenomena to maximize the information that can be extracted. Theoretical and empirical
studies have been conducted for decades with the aim to understand such physical
phenomena and consequently improve detection, estimation and classification algorithms.
With the advent of high spatial resolution radar and subsequently synthetic aperture radar (SAR),
radar images became available that could be used also in the area of maritime observation.
Nowadays, two-dimensional (2D) radar imaging is recognized as one
of the most important tools for monitoring the sea surface. As a matter of
fact, a large number of airborne and spaceborne platforms for Earth observation
are equipped with radar imaging systems. Moreover, some coastal and
