Review text

Under the assumption that the emitted signal and the far field are known parameters, the authors determinate the refractive index map as the electromagnetic characterization of the tropospheric medium above the sea surface. Their method consists in least square approaches deduced from different optimization algorithms. More concretely, the electromagnetic field at the receiver (far field) is supposed to be recorded without noise and the inverse problem with a strong Gaussian noise is investigated with the conjugate gradient method. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1029.00072].
