The use of polarimetry in subsurface radar

Proceedings of IGARSS '94 - 1994 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2002
Extraction of target information from the measurement of the state of polarization of the scattered wave has been a promising area of research for a number of years. This paper discusses the theory and implementation of a stepped frequency CW polarimetric subsurface radar.

Introduction to Radar Polarimetry

2012
Wave polarization and polarimetry play vital roles in radar target identification comprising the three phases of target detection, discrimination, and recognition. This chapter presents an introduction to radar polarimetry emphasizing the polarization behavior as described by the scattering matrix.

Radar polarimetry for subsurface imaging

SPIE Proceedings, 2001
The use of radar polarimetry for subsurface sensing is introduced in this paper. We developed a polarimetric borehole radar, which can acquire the full-polarimetric radar profile in a borehole. The measured profile showed that subsurface fracture characteristics can be obtained from the polarimetric analysis.

Adaptive processing in radar polarimetry

SPIE Proceedings, 1993
In this paper, an adaptive polarimetric system is proposed, which allows for the minimization of the contribution of a stationary clutter by adapting the polarization state of the receiving antenna to the polarimetric signature of the environment by using the minimum power criterion.

Basic Concepts of Radar Polarimetry

1992
A comprehensive overview of the basic principles of radar polarimetry is presented. The relevant fundamental field equations are first provided in order to introduce the polarization state formulations of electromagnetic waves in the frequency domain, including the Jones and the Stokes vector formalism and its presentation on the Poincare sphere and on

Aspects of Statistical Radar Polarimetry

2006 7th International Symposium on Antennas, Propagation & EM Theory, 2006
A comparison between the Kennaugh matrix and the covariance matrix formulation of second-order moment radar polarimetry reveals fundamental relationships between power and variance aspects of bi-static and mono-static radar scattering from randomly distributed targets.

Understanding Reciprocity in Radar Polarimetry

1992
Unconventional techniques are presented for analysis of the effects of two-way propagation on electromagnetic fields. Difficulties arising from the use of different coordinate systems for transmission and reception are demonstrated and discussed. The effects of linear processes and reciprocity are worked out in detail.
