Weather Radar Polarimetry-Trends Toward Operational Applications [PDF]

open access: bronzeBulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1996
This is a version of a speech presented at the 27th Conference on Radar Meteorology. Relative advantages of polarimetry are contrasted with the advantages accrued by the introduction of radar into meteorology and by the addition of Doppler measurements.

On radar polarimetry in FM-CW radar

Proceedings of IGARSS '93 - IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2002
This paper attempts to apply the principle of radar polarimetry to wideband synthetic aperture FM-CW radar and presents a basic polarimetric detection result of a linear target in a laboratory measurement. Although the principle of radar polarimetry has well been established for the completely polarized wave and for the monostatic case, it still needs ...

On foundations of radar polarimetry

IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation, 1986
Polarization aspects of the radar target scattering problem are reexamined. The optimization problem of radar polarimetry is formulated and Kennaugh's method of finding optimal polarizations is modified and extended to nonreciprocal and bistatic cases. Our approach does not necessitate diagonalization of the target scattering operator and therefore, a ...

Radar Polarimetry for Target Discrimination

2007 IEEE Region 5 Technical Conference, 2007
Discrimination of targets vs. clutter is critical to many radar identification problems. For the purpose of Improvised Explosive Device (IED) detection, radar range profiles and images are valuable to capture the target of interest; it remains a big challenge to differentiate the target from the surrounding man-made clutter.

Basic Theory of Radar Polarimetry

2021
This chapter briefly discusses Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging principles and the theory of SAR polarimetry. The descriptions of several polarimetric parameters and their expressions are presented in this chapter. SAR imaging principles are introduced, followed by the description of wave and polarimetric scattering concepts. Several polarimetric
