摘要: In recent years there has been increasing interest in the use of polarization for imaging objects a cluttered environment. Examples are optical through clouds, detection biological medium, and microwave clutter. We extend previous studies continuous-wave scattering to pulse-polarization discrete scatterers. solve time-dependent vector radiative transfer equation plane-parallel medium by using Mie ordinates method. The degree cross-polarization discrimination calculated verify advantages circular over linear maintaining greater copolarized components rather than cross-polarized components.
