Abstract/Summary

Within the framework of a European Space Agency funded project, MetaSensing is developing the Ocean Surface Current Airborne Radar Demonstrator (OSCAR) system tailored to the observations of ocean surface motion and wind retrieval. The OSCAR demonstrator instrument is developed with the observation parameters which directly relate to a potential satellite mission for mesoscale measurements of ocean surface currents in the open ocean and coastal regions. The project has concluded the detailed design phase, starting the phase of manufacturing, assembly, integration and testing of the system. This paper presents a technical overview of the system design and the validation campaign.
