Abstract :
The authors present multiple polarisation bistatic radar clutter from forested hills at S-band. The measurements were performed at grazing incidence and azimuth scattering angles ranging from 25 to 75° with respect to the forward scatter plane. The scattering angle dependence of both the normalised radar cross-section and the depolarisation ratio are examined
