GNSS Reflectometry (GNSS-R) is an innovative technique that exploits GNSS signals reflected off surfaces as signals of opportunity to infer geophysical information of the reflecting scene.

GNSS-R for Sea Surface Observation Model
When the sea roughness increases, the transmitted signal is spreaded over the sea surface and different points within the so called Glistening Zone (GZ) contribute to the scattered power

Nominal Specular Point (SP) is in the origin of axes;
Transmitter and receiver lie in the zy plane;
Points whose scattered wave experiences the same delay lie in an ellippse with Tx and Rx as its foci (iso-range ellipse)
Points whose scattered wave experiences the same frequncy shift lie in an hyperbola (iso-Doppler hyperbola)
The received power is mapped in Delay Doppler Map (DDM)

Conclusions
In this study a different approach to deal with GNSS signals is proposed.
GNSS-R can be seen as a bistatic radar system.Results show that GNSS signals can be succesfully exploited
for remote sensing purposes. The SNR shows that different system configuration can be
exploited but different receivers with different accuracy, i.e. cost, need to be employed.
