Statistical Modeling of Polarimetric RCS of Road Surfaces for Scattering Simulation and Optimal Antenna Polarization Determination

Incoherent backscattering of mm-waves from natural rough surfaces is considered. A novel method is proposed to determine the statistical properties of surface scattering from range profile measurements. The method is based on modeling the road surface as a grid of uncorrelated scattering elements, described by normalized scattering matrices....

Event-based progression detection strategies using scanning laser polarimetry images of the human retina

Monitoring glaucoma patients and ensuring optimal treatment requires accurate and precise detection of progression. Many glaucomatous progression detection strategies may be formulated for Scanning Laser Polarimetry (SLP) data of the local nerve fiber thickness. In this paper, several strategies, all based on repeated GDx VCC SLP measurements,...
