  • Abstract
    This paper proposes a generalization of the Huynen theory to bistatic radar configurations for which the scattering matrices can no longer be assumed symmetrical. A set of parameters characterizing the physical mechanisms is extracted from the disoriented bistatic Kennaugh matrix. The distribution of amplitude between the parameters of the disoriented Kennaugh matrix is studied.
