... radar detectors are usually active in that they first emit a pulse of microwaves. This microwave energy travels to the surface of the Earth and the reflected energy is detected by the sensor (a bit like flash photography). By using microwave energy in remote sensing, satellites like RADARSAT are able to see the Earth at night and through clouds. 2, record 1, English, - reflected%20energy

[...] les capteurs radars sont généralement actifs en ce sens qu'ils émettent d'abord une impulsion hyperfréquence qui est transmise vers la surface de la Terre, et l'énergie réfléchie est détectée par le capteur à bord du satellite (un peu comme la photographie au flash). Utilisée en télédétection, cette énergie hyperfréquence permet à des satellites comme RADARSAT de «voir» la nuit et à travers les nuages. 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9nergie%20r%C3%A9fl%C3%A9chie

Dans le cadre de cette étude, les premiers facteurs d'importance qui déterminent la quantité d'énergie réfléchie vers le transducteur, et par conséquent l'amplitude du signal imprimé sur l'enregistrement, sont la nature et la texture du fond marin. 1, record 2, French, - %C3%A9nergie%20r%C3%A9fl%C3%A9chie
