Abstract

In this paper, a novel rotating array topology is proposed for full polarimetric imaging. The rotating array acquires three co-polarized signals at each spatial sampling point. After a simple algebraic manipulation, the full polarimetric signals in the HV polarization basis can be retrieved. Then the traditional polarimetric imaging algorithms can be applied to reconstruct the full polarimetric images. The proposed topology circumvents the polarization variations of the rotating array for signal acquisition. It is very attractive in some applications, for example, ground penetrating radar for tunnel boring machine. Finally, the imaging performances of the proposed array are validated by some numerical experiments.
