2 $y RADAR POLARIMETRY $x r Ezt (, ) $z Radar Polarimetry (Polar : polarisation Metry: measure) is the science of acquiring, processing and analysing the polarization state of an electromagnetic field Radar Polarimetry deals with the full vector nature of polarized electromagnetic waves 3/9/7 Lecture D1Lb5- Advanced SAR - Polarimetry Eric POTTIER

3 RADAR POLARIMETRY The POLARISATION information Contained in the waves backscattered from a given medium is highly related to: its geometrical structure reflectivity, shape and orientation its geophysical properties such as humidity, roughness, 3/9/7 Lecture D1Lb5- Advanced SAR - Polarimetry Eric POTTIER 3
