Abstract:

A two-dimensional Gauss rough surface characterized by textures is presented and the properties of polarimetric scattering from the surface are studied. The rough surface characterized by textures can be obtained through the angle rotating in Fourier transform with the ratio of the two correlation lengths large enough. The scattered field is derived in the Cartesian coordinate system through the integration of scattering facets with the elliptic polarized incidence wave. The polarized radar cross section (RCS) from the Gaussian rough surface characterized by textures is computed. Several numerical results exhibit the influence of incident angle, texture angle, correlation length and root mean square height on the polarimetric scattering from the texture rough surface.

Key words: polarization, rough surface, radar cross-section, texture, correlation length
