Abstract

A scattering model based on the T-matrix of axisymmetric particles is briefly described. The average Mueller matrix elements are formulated for mono-size distribution particles whose orientation in space (relative to the incident wave) is described by probability distribution. Multiparameter radar measurements, such as reflectivity (ZH), differential reflectivity (ZDR), linear depolarization ratio (LDR), and complex cross-correlation (ρ), are derived in terms of elements of Mueller matrix elements.
