  • Abstract
    In this paper, the scattering characters of passive calibrator are experimentally researched for SAR calibration applications. The works are focused on the SAR image of corner reflectors larger than the resolution cells. What is more, the RCS of the nonorthogonal and unevenness corner reflector are also studied. Finally, for full PolSAR calibration, we also discover some interesting phenomena for the first time, which are very important for the calibration activity.
