Numerical Full Inversion of Two Dielectric Cylinders Upon a Metallic Plane: A First Step Toward Forest Parameters Retrieval From VHF to P-Band Radar Data
Abstract:Radar remote sensing applied to forest covers is a domain of interest for a few decades, particularly in forest monitoring for the global carbon cycle. In this paper, we use a numerical electromagnetic scattering model to investigate the full-inversion of a simple case where two dielectric cylinders are lying upon a metallic ground seen as a theoretical representation of only one tree trunk and one primary branch. The presented process performs cylinders 3D-locations estimation using an Orthogonal Matching Pur… Show more
