Abstract

Radar measurements are influenced by a variety of errors which influence system performance and accuracy. Limited channel isolation, imperfect polarization purity and system phase noise may lead to significant reduction for precise and high dynamic cross polarization measurements. These shortcomings can be partly compensated by calibrating the radar with a PARC arrangement (Polarimetric Active Radar Calibrator). The calibration method utilized different artificial targets with singular scattering matrices (simulated by receiver/transmitter combinations on a closely located tower) for 3 different polarization bases.
