Several experimental results show that it is possible to extract useful phase information from reflected GPS signals over the oceans. In this work we begin the development of the theoretical background to account for these results and fully…
In this paper we focus on the microwave bistatic scattering process, with the aim of deriving an expression for the interferometric complex field auto-correlation function from a static platform. We start from the Fresnel integral and…
Passive remote sensing techniques have become more and more popular for detection and characterization purposes. The advantage of using the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) are the well known signals emitted and the availability…
A real time assimilation and forecasting system for coastal currents is presented. The purpose of the system is to deliver current analyses and forecasts based on assimilation of high frequency radar surface current measurements. The local…
The impact of the expansion of a high-frequency radar (HFR) system in a dynamic coastal area (the Ibiza Channel in the Western Mediterranean Sea) is evaluated through an Observing System Simulation Experiment (OSSE). The installation of two…
Hyperspectral in situ sensing has shown promise in retrieving aquatic biogeochemical (BGC) parameters, such as total suspended solids, dissolved organic carbon, and total chlorophyll-a, for cost-effective monitoring of coastal water…
A~machine learning framework is developed to estimate ocean-wave conditions. By supervised training of machine learning models on many thousands of iterations of a physics-based wave model, accurate representations of significant wave…
Cyber-resilience is an increasing concern in developing autonomous navigation solutions for marine vessels. This paper scrutinizes cyber-resilience properties of marine navigation through a prism with three edges: multiple sensor…
Many Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) use Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) position as the primary measurement to drive filter performance and bound error growth. However, commercial-grade GNSS receivers introduce unknown…
We report results from the Eddy Experiment, where a synchronous GPS receiver pair was flown on an aircraft to collect sampled L1 signals and their reflections from the sea surface to investigate the altimetric accuracy of GNSS-R. During the…
Global Navigation Satellite Systems enable precise localization and timing even for highly mobile devices, but legacy implementations provide only limited support for the new generation of security-enhanced signals. Inertial Measurement…
Wavefront sensing involves estimating the phase and intensity of light, enabling a wide range of imaging applications, from adaptive optics and astronomy to biomedical imaging. Since conventional image sensors can only measure the spatial…
GNSS-R signals contain a coherent and an incoherent component. A new algorithm for coherent phase altimetry over rough ocean surfaces, called PARFAIT, has been developed and implemented in Starlab's STARLIGHT GNSS-R software package. In…
This paper investigates whether large-scale GNSS spoofing activity can be inferred from maritime Automatic Identification System (AIS) position reports. A data-processing framework, called SeaSpoofFinder, available here:…
In autonomous applications for mobility and transport, a high-rate and highly accurate vehicle-state estimation is achieved by fusing measurements of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) and inertial sensors. The state estimation and…

A novel approach for robust state estimation of marine vessels in rough water is proposed in this paper to enable tight collaboration between Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and a marine vessel, such as cooperative landing or object…
Detecting gravitational wave bursts (characterised by short durations and poorly modelled waveforms) requires to have coincidences between several interferometric detectors in order to reject non-stationary noise events. As the wave…
Significant wave height is one of the most important parameters characterizing ocean waves, and accurate numerical ocean wave forecasting is crucial for coastal protection and shipping. However, due to the randomness and nonlinearity of the…
