Ship and Oil-Spill Detection Using the Degree of Polarization in Linear and Hybrid/Compact Dual-Pol SAR [PDF]
Monitoring and detection of ships and oil spills using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) have received a considerable attention over the past few years, notably due to the wide area coverage and day and night all-weather capabilities of SAR systems.

Compact polarimetric SAR interferometry
The authors discuss the role and performance of compact polarimetry in SAR interferometry. The considered SAR architecture transmits either a linearly polarised wave oriented at 45° or a circularly polarised one, and receives at horizontal and vertical polarisation.

On the use of the l(2)-norm for texture analysis of polarimetric SAR data [PDF]
In this paper, the use of the l2-norm, or Span, of the scattering vectors is suggested for texture analysis of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data, with the benefits that we need neither an analysis of the polarimetric channels separately ...
