Abstract :
This paper presents a polarimetric model for backscatter and its Doppler spectrum of a walking human and a dog subject at W-band using GO-PO method. Polarimetric measurements of human target with and without a firearm are also presented to demonstrate the increase in the level of cross-polarized backscatter. Furthermore, we present a time-frequency analysis to separate polarimetric response of the human torso.
