Forest structure dependency analysis of L-band SAR backscatter [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Forest structure plays an important role in forest biomass inversion using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) backscatter. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensors with long-wavelength have the potentiality to provide reliable and timely forest biomass ...

Aboveground Forest Biomass Estimation Combining L- and P-Band SAR Acquisitions
Remote Sensing, 2018 While considerable research has focused on using either L-band or P-band SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) on their own for forest biomass retrieval, the use of the two bands simultaneously to improve forest biomass retrieval remains less explored.

Drifting Ionospheric Scintillation Simulation for L-Band Geosynchronous SAR
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote SensingAn L-band geosynchronous synthetic aperture radar (GEO SAR) is susceptible to the ionospheric scintillation induced by ionospheric irregularities due to its lower carrier frequency.

Ionospheric Sounding Based on Spaceborne PolSAR in P-Band
Atmosphere, 2022 The signal of spaceborne low-frequency full-polarization synthetic aperture radar (full-pol SAR) contains abundant ionospheric information. Phased Array L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) working in the L-band has been verified as an emerging ...

POLARIMETRIC CALIBRATION OF L-BAND AIRBORNE SAR DATA [PDF]
ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020 Abstract. The PolSAR calibration ensures that the relationship between the SAR observations and the target characteristics on the ground are consistent and resembles the theoretical estimation which in turn improves the overall data quality. Essentially, calibration prevents the propagation of uncertainty into further analysis to characterise the ...

Characterization of L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) backscatter from floating and grounded thermokarst lake ice in Arctic Alaska [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2013 Radar remote sensing is a well-established method to discriminate lakes retaining liquid-phase water beneath winter ice cover from those that do not. L-band (23.6 cm wavelength) airborne radar showed great promise in the 1970s, but spaceborne synthetic ...

Comparing C- and L-band SAR images for sea ice motion estimation [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2015 Pairs of consecutive C-band synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) images are routinely used for sea ice motion estimation. The L-band radar has a fundamentally different character, as its longer wavelength penetrates deeper into sea ice.

Mapping Regional Inundation with Spaceborne L-Band SAR [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2015 Shortly after the launch of ALOS PALSAR L-band SAR by the Japan Space Exploration Agency (JAXA), a program to develop an Earth Science Data Record (ESDR) for inundated wetlands was funded by NASA. Using established methodologies, extensive multi-temporal L-band ALOS ScanSAR data acquired bi-monthly by the PALSAR instrument onboard ALOS were used to ...
