Classification of Earth terrain components within a full polarimetric SAR image is one of the
many important applications of Radar Polarimetry. In this paper we consider the use of …

There is currently a great deal of interest in the use of polarimetry for radar remote sensing.
In this context, different and important objectives are to classify Earth terrain components …

Conventional imaging radars operating with a single polarization antenna measures only
the amplitude of the returned signal. Therefore, accurate discrimination between similar …

Investigates the discriminating properties of the numerous polarimetric parameters and their
potential to retrieve electromagnetic mechanisms. This discussion is based on two different …

One of the great challenges for modern radar is to classify, sort and identify targets of all
kinds for military battlespace surveillance as well as for civilian geo-environmental stress …

Describes some results of an analysis of the radar data acquired during the MAC Europe'91
campaign over the Montespertoli test site in Italy. The analysis is based mainly on a …

Two different operators are used in radar polarimetry: the first one relates the Stokes
parameters of the scattered wave to those of the incident wave while the second one …

In this paper, and from the received waves, we investigate a number of Polarimetric radar
techniques to characterize the polarization response of forest cover, using the example of …
