Title
In Search of the Statistical Properties of High-Resolution Polarimetric SAR Data for the Measurements of Forest Biomass Beyond the RCS Saturation Limits
Abstract
The purpose of this letter is to present the results on the study of searching effective parameters that describe the relation between high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images and forest parameters. The study is based on the non-Gaussian texture analysis of the polarimetric airborne Pi-SAR data over coniferous forests in Hokkaido, Japan. The radar cross section (RCS) in terms of a for...
