Project Proposal

This document outlines a research proposal to design a dual polarization antenna system for a Doppler radar transceiver for long distance remote sensing. The goals are to explore new techniques for reducing cross polarization in reference to dual polarized radar specifications and to perform system level engineering, computer-aided design, fabrication, and testing of the antenna system. Required resources include a laptop computer and computational electromagnetic software tools.

1. Introduction

Radar systems with single polarized antennas receives backscattered wave field vector

and is transformed into a scalar signal resulting in loss of some information regarding

target features………….

2. Literature Review

This literature review is based on issues with dual polarized radars. ……….

2.1 Polarimetric radar:

The importance of the polarimetric properties associated with electromagnetic (EM)

scattering by targets was noticed in the early 1950s [1]……….

2.2 Polarization based detectibility:

Polarization based detectibility is subject to following terms.

A. Antenna and wave polarization

The polarization state for both backscattered wave waves and receive antennas can be

described using Stokes vector [ 2]……..

B. Scattering matrices for target

If transmission antenna’s polarization vector is Vt and Vs is of backscattered wave, then


target orientation angle, target helicity angle, target skip angle, and target polarization

angle [8]…………..

C. Object Dependent behavior of Polarization

i. Target Shape

The backscattered wave mostly depends on the shape and conducting properties of

surface around the backscattered center………..

ii. Precipitation Clutter

Backscattering from precipitation clutter can limit detection capability of radar[1].

iii. Land and Sea Clutter

Ground clutter introduces depolarization due to ground surface roughness,

causing to reduce radar visibility. [4,8].

3. Open Areas

Cross polarization reduction is important in sensitivity measurement in Polarimetric

RADAR system. ……..

4. Statement of Goals

The platform for this research thesis would be the design of dual polarization antenna

system for specification compatible Doppler Radar Transceiver System for long distance

remote sensing. ………..

The design will begin at system level engineering issues and moving through computer-

aided design. In the end fabrication and test will be performed.

5. Research & Innovation Goals

6. Academic Goals

The major portion of my thesis work is related to RF measurements, microwave systems

specifications and application of computational electromagnetic on antennas.

7. Methodology and Plan

i. Methodology

New technique for cross polarization reduction on antenna in reference of dual polarized

radar’s specification will be explored……….
