| Abstract | Bistatic HF ocean radars are being proposed as a useful option when planning the layout of coastal stations for mapping sea surface currents. Monostatic HF ocean radar stations measure the components of the vector currents which are radially towards or away from the stations. The combination of the radials from one point on the sea surface to each station can be combined to produce the familiar surface current maps, which are the primary product from HF ocean radars. If the monostatic radars were also operating in bistatic mode, then components of the vector current are measured in the direction of the normal to each ellipse which represents a signal path length from the transmitter to the scattering point (on the ellipse) and on to the receiver. Stylised pictures of this geometry show that these surface current components are directed towards the general area of the midpoint between the transmitter and the receiver, and can be useful in reducing errors by providing extra, redundant, information in the calculation of the re-constituted vectors. Errors in determining the location of the scattering point in bistatic radar observations in some circumstances lead to degradation of the accuracy of the currents which can be detected. In this paper we consider two effects: the effect of receiver beamwidth; and the effect of receiver bandwidth. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
