Abstract :
The principles of the correct estimation of backscattering matrix (BSM) under real conditions in monostatic radar are discussed. The term "correct" means that the estimate keeps all global properties of symmetry of a real object\´s "instantaneous" BSM. The relation between the required accuracy of BSM estimation and the base N (BT product of bandwidth and time interval of the measurement) of the illuminated vector signal is shown.
