Abstract: Ship's movement on the sea surface will produce wake extending for several kilometers. In order to study the electromagnetic scattering characteristics of the composite scene of sea surface, ship, and wake, this paper combines geometric optics with physical optics (GO-PO), Kirchhoff approximation (KA) and facet scattering field model of sea surface to calculate the electromagnetic scattering characteristics of this composite scene. Firstly, the geometric model of the composite scene of sea surface and Kelvin wake is established by using Elfouhaily omnidirectional spectrum and classical ship wave generation theory. Secondly, the generated geometric overlay model of the wake and sea surface is combined with the ship to generate a composite scene model of the sea surface, ship, and wake. Finally, the scattering echoes of sea surface and wake are calculated by KA and facet scattering field model of sea surface, and the scattering echoes of ship is calculated by GO-PO. On this basis, the electromagnetic characteristics of the composite scene of sea surface, ship, and wake under different conditions are discussed. The research conclusion has certain reference value for the detection of ship and wake in complex sea conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
