  3. Radio acoustic sounding system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_acoustic_sounding_system

    The principle of operation behind RASS is as follows: Bragg scattering occurs when acoustic energy (i.e., sound) is transmitted into the vertical beam of a radar such that the wavelength of the acoustic signal matches the half-wavelength of the radar. As the frequency of the acoustic signal is varied, strongly enhanced scattering of the radar ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_radar

    The radar echo is generated by specular reflections from the sea surface. The low grazing angle mode. The radar echo is generated by Bragg scattering, hence wind generated surface ripple (capillary waves) must be present. The backscattered signal will be modulated by the large surface gravity waves and the gravity wave information is derived ...

  5. Scatterometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatterometer

    The scattering mechanism is known as Bragg scattering, which occurs from the waves that are in resonance with the microwaves. The backscattered power depends on the wind speed and direction. Viewed from different azimuth angles, the observed backscatter from these waves varies.

  6. Bragg's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bragg's_law

    This equation, Bragg's law, describes the condition on θ for constructive interference. [12] A map of the intensities of the scattered waves as a function of their angle is called a diffraction pattern. Strong intensities known as Bragg peaks are obtained in the diffraction pattern when the scattering angles satisfy Bragg condition.

    Ground Equipment Facility QRC (FUDS C03PA046300: "Benton Air Force Communications [clarification needed] Annex") [6] is an FAA radar station that was part of a Cold War SAGE radar station (Benton Air Force Station, call sign: Oppose) [3] for aircraft control and warning "from Massachusetts to southern Virginia, and as far out to sea as possible."

  9. Acousto-optic modulator - Wikipedia

    When the incident light beam is at Bragg angle, a diffraction pattern emerges where an order of diffracted beam occurs at each angle θ that satisfies: [3] ⁡ = Here, m = ..., −2, −1, 0, +1, +2, ... is the order of diffraction, λ is the wavelength of light in vacuum, and Λ is the wavelength of the sound.
