• An equivalent situation was previously studied in [6]: topography retrieval of the surface.
•As it was found there, when the instrument is closer to the surface, the frequency of the oscillations vs. the elevation angle is lower than when the instrument is at a higher height.
• This height automatically translates into water level monitoring.

TECHNIQUE
FUNDAMENTALS OF THE INTERFERENCE PATTERN TECHNIQUE
THE ALGORITHM FOR RETRIEVAL
• Splits the interference powers into moving windows in elevation angle containing one minimum and one maximum.
• Compute distance between minimum and maximum positions, Δθelev .
• Theoretically compute the distance for different instruments heights.
• Selects the instrument height that minimizes the error respect to Δθelev .
• Finally subtracting the initial height it is possible to monitor the variations of the water level.

• Measurements on October 30th, 2010 (DoY 303). Ground-truth = 2.140 m measured water level.
• Measurements on December, 10th, 2010 (DoY 344). Ground-truth = 3.000 m.
• Ground-truth measured with a laser distance sensor DLR130K BOSCH by averaging 10 measurements (accuracy of 1.5 mm) with respect to the phase center of the instrument

THE h-PARAMETER RETIEVAL
• The SMIGOL-Reflectometer measurements were processed and the algorithm to compute the equivalent instrument height was applied to the two days of measurements
• Local maxima and local minima of measured and retrieved powers are in the same elevation angles

WATER LEVEL MONITORING USING THE INTERFERENCE PATTERN GNSS-R
TECHNIQUE
• The Interference Pattern Technique and the SMIGOL-Reflectometer have demonstrated to be extremely simple and yet powerful tools to monitor the water level in reservoirs and lakes.
• The algorithm developed is based on the instantaneous frequency of the oscillations of the detected interference power.
• Water level can be estimated with centimeter accuracy.
