Model-based decomposition allows the physical interpretation of polarimetric radar scattering in terms of various scattering mechanisms. A three-component decomposition proposed by Freeman and Durden has been popular, though significant shortcomings

A dual-copolarization algorithm to classify inland open water bodies free of flooded vegetation using an L-band radar is presented and evaluated, with a view to applying the method to the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission for hydrological s

Algorithms for soil moisture estimation from radars conventionally use substantial amounts of ancillary data to parametrize complex electromagnetic models. In contrast, we describe radar data of a vegetated scene as a linear function of soil moisture

Soil moisture radar retrieval algorithms generally utilize substantial ancillary data to parametrize complex electromagnetic models. In this work, we utilize an existing empirical approach as an alternative; it describes radar backscatter of a vegeta

There is special synergy between NASA space instruments and medical devices, especially those that may be implanted in the human body. For example, in both cases instruments have to be small, typically have to consume little power and often have to o

A compact polarimetric (CP) radar system requires fewer measurements than a fully polarimetric (FP) system, thus allowing added flexibility in radar system design. Previous studies have shown the potential of using compact polarimetry for radar remot

Current polarimetric model-based decomposition techniques are limited to specific types of vegetation because of their assumptions about the volume scattering component. In this paper, we propose a generalized probability density function based on th

The Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission is one of the first Earth observation satellites being developed by NASA in response to the National Research Council's Decadal Survey. SMAP will make global measurements of the soil moisture present at
