An algorithm is obtained for the operation of an optimal detector and discriminator of an oceanographic radio altimeter with a nanosecond probing pulse. The detection characteristic of an optimal detector is calculated, as well as the discrimination and fluctuation characteristics of an optimal discriminator. The potential accuracy of measurements of the altitude as a function of the degree of the sea surface swells and the signal-to-noise ratio is evaluated.
