Title
Transpolarizing Trihedral Corner Reflector Characterization Using a GB-SAR System
Abstract
The use of a low-profile, lightweight, and easy-to-fabricate transpolarizing surface placed on one side of a trihedral corner reflector (TCR) as a polarimetric calibrator is presented in this letter. The transpolarizing TCR presents a high backscattered cross-polar response contrary to standard TCRs. The performance of this device has been tested at the X-band using the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya ground-based synthetic aperture radar.
