Features: Transient polarization statistical characteristics and their processing are currently at the forefront of radar technology development. This book is a specialized work in the field of radar polarization information processing, summarizing the research achievements and practical experience of the authors over many years. It reexamines and discusses the time-varying polarization characteristics of electromagnetic waves and radar target electromagnetic scattering from a statistical and dynamic perspective, as well as their numerous application issues in polarization radar, such as weak target detection, (false-positive target discrimination), and target identification. The book is divided into five chapters. Chapter 1 briefly summarizes and reviews the theory, application achievements, and pressing frontier issues in radar polarization information processing; Chapter 2 conducts an in-depth analysis of the transient polarization characteristics of time-varying electromagnetic waves from a dynamic and statistical perspective, detailing the statistical properties of electromagnetic wave transient polarization; Chapter 3 elaborates on the characterization methods of radar target electromagnetic scattering transient polarization characteristics from both deterministic and statistical perspectives; Chapter 4 focuses on the transient polarization detection of narrowband radar targets; Chapter 5 thoroughly discusses issues such as the polarization discrimination of active false targets and the feature extraction and automatic identification of warhead-like targets. This book is suitable for researchers engaged in radar information processing, as well as serving as a textbook and reference material for teachers and graduate students in radar and electronic engineering-related fields at universities.
