Abstract

Diversity of sounding signal waveforms for polarimetric FM-CW radar is studied. Each signal represents a pair of mutually orthogonal wavelets which can be transmitted via two orthogonal polarizations. The signals compose a waveform library which has been implemented in the operational polarimetric software-defined radar PARSAX. This paper presents a sounding signals´ library for polarimetric FM-CW radar. All the considered in this paper waveforms have been implemented in the operating polarimetric radar (in its FM-CW mode), namely in the PARSAX radar system developed in Delft, The Netherlands.
