A new study based on the complex and amplitude cross-pol correlation is made. It exploits Sentinel-1 Single Look Complex (SLC) SAR and reference HSCAT wind data. The behavior of these two polarimetric features vs wind speed is analyzed. Low-to-moderate and high wind speed regimes are considered. The study is focused on three subsets characterized by different incident angle ranges. The study shows that in all cases the two polarimetric features are sensitive to wind speed and better behave with respect to Svv.

Abstract

A new study based on the complex and amplitude cross-pol correlation is made. It exploits Sentinel-1 Single Look Complex (SLC) SAR and reference HSCAT wind data. The behavior of these two polarimetric features vs wind speed is analyzed. Low-to-moderate and high wind speed regimes are considered. The study is focused on three subsets characterized by different incident angle ranges. The study shows that in all cases the two polarimetric features are sensitive to wind speed and better behave with respect to Svv.
