- Abstract
- Microwave cross-polarization due to precipitation is generally attributed to the non-spherical shape of particles. In the simplest model one assumes that the precipitation medium has two symmetry planes and only the coherent part of the field is taken into account. A canting of these planes must be assumed to explain the cross-polarization between vertical and horizontal polarizations. Theoretical investigations based on the equation of radiative transfer suggest a certain importance of noncoherent scattering effects. This paper reports results of a three-year experimental work and aims to give a better insight on the cross-polarization mechanisms.
