abstract = "Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is an active, all-day and
all-weather, high-resolution microwave sensor able to measure the
electromagnetic field backscattered off the observed scene.
Antarctic environment presents very hard imaging conditions for
optical imagery, and sometimes they are challenging even for SAR
observations. However, full-polarimetric (FP) SAR features can
provide useful information for characterizing man-made targets in
different types of ice. This study aims at exploiting polarimetric
features extracted from compact-polarimetric (CP) SAR
architectures, e. g., circular transmitting/linear receiving
(CTLR) and linear transmitting/linear receiving (LTLR), that have
been shown to be operationally attractive due to the doubled area
coverage they offer with respect to FP SAR architectures. CP SAR
data are here emulated using actual FP SAR measurements to both
detect the dominant scattering mechanism that characterizes
man-made targets, and classify them accordingly. As a study case,
an aircraft crashed on November 2014 off the Chilean military base
area in the western of King George Island (Antarctica) and
actually placed close to the gravel airstrip, is considered. At
all, three Radarsat-2 FPSAR data were acquired over the test site.
In this study, as first results, a single SAR acquisition was
explored due to the availability of ground truth relevant to the
crashed aircraft and other airdrome structures position. The
achieved preliminary results have encouraged future work that will
deal with the exploration of different responses from a wide range
of inland and sea ice.",
