This book synthesizes all current research to provide practical information for both the newcomer and the expert in radar polarimetry. The text offers a concise description of the mathematical fundamentals illustrated with many examples using SAR data, with a main focus on remote sensing of the Earth.The book begins with basics of synthetic aperture radar to provide the basis for understanding how polarimetric SAR images are formed and gives an introduction to the fundamentals of radar polarimetry. It goes on to discuss more advanced polarimetric concepts that allow one to infer more information about the terrain being imaged. In order to analyze data quantitatively, the signals must be calibrated carefully, which the book addresses in a chapter summarizing the basic calibration algorithms. The book concludes with examples of applying polarimetric analysis to scattering from rough surfaces, to infer soil moisture from radar signals"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000454786 650_0 $$aSynthetic aperture radar. 000454786 650_0 $$aPolarimetric remote sensing. 000454786 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000454786 7001_ $$aKim, Yun-jin. 000454786 852__ $$bebk 000454786 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/usiricelib/Doc?id=10504137$$zOnline Access 000454786 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:454786$$pGLOBAL_SET 000454786 980__ $$aEBOOK 000454786 980__ $$aBIB 000454786 982__ $$aEbook 000454786 983__ $$aOnline
