Design and Testing of a W-Band Polarimetric Radar

Abstract

In this research we carry out measurements with a 94-GHz (W-band) polarimetric radar prototype. The complex 2×2 scattering matrix [S] is used as the basis for analysis, and the magnitude of its off-diagonal elements |Shv|², |Svh|², along with the target generator T33, are used to reveal information about the diameter as well as the orientation of metal rods.
