Cloude, Shane.
Polarisation : applications in remote sensing / Polarization S.R. Cloude. - 1st ed. - Oxford ; New York : Oxford University Press, 2010. - xii, 453 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm
Includes bibliographical references (pages 435-449) and index.
1. Polarised electromagnetic waves -- 2. Depolarisation and scattering entropy -- 3. Depolarisation in surface and volume scattering -- 4. Decomposition theorems -- 5. Introduction to radar interferometry -- 6. Polarimetric interferometry -- 7. coherence of surface and volume scattering -- 8. Parameter estimation using polarimetric interferometry -- 9. Applications of polarimetry and inter ferometry -- Appendix 1. Introduction to matrix algebra -- Appendix 2. Unitary and rotation groups -- Appendix 3. Coherent stochastic signal analysis.
"This book combines for the first time, the topics of radar polarimetry and interferometry. This combination was first developed in 1997 and has since become a major topic in radar sciences and its applications, in particular to space sciences. In its simplest form it concerns the study of interferograms formed by combining waves with different polarizations and their exploitation to infer important physical properties of the planetary surface being investigated."--Jacket.
