摘要

This document contains the Final Proceedings for the Third Siberian Polarization Workshop (Sibpol 2004), which was held on 7-9 September 2004. The workshop's 34 papers focused on the following topics: (1) polarization of electromagnetic waves at reflection and scattering by complex objects; (2) vector processing of optical signals; (3) polarization characteristics of signals in radar, radio navigation, and communication systems; and (4) polarization radar. A partial listing of titles follows: Dual Polarized Patch Antenna for Branch Correlation Measurements in an Indoor Raleigh Fading Channel utilizing Polarization Diversity; Polarization Effects in Nonlinear Radar; Recent Advances in Fully Polarimetric POL-DIFF-IN-SAR Sensing and Imaging with Applications to Geodynamic Stress-Change Monitoring; Polarization Bistable Optical Devices; User Collusion for Joint Utilization of Electromagnetic Frequency Bands in Radar Remote Sensing: Frequency Allocation, Interference Reduction and Security Threat Mitigation; UWB Radio Polarimetry; Joint Estimation of Coordinate and Polarization Parameters of Radar Objects; Experimental Researches of Polarization Characteristics of Clouds and Precipitation; Laser Polarization Sounding of High-Level Clouds; Modelling Results of Complex Objects Backscattering; Experimental Investigations of Polarization Structure of Backward and Sideward Radiation of Scanning Antenna; Characteristics of Sideward Radiation of Reflector Antennas; Accuracy Estimation of Rain Intensity Measurement by Radar Techniques; Increase of S/N Ratio Due to Adaptive Control of HF Waves Polarization under Transmitting Discrete Information; Radar Characteristics and Polarization Structure Peculiarities of EM Field Scattered by Some Radar Targets and EM Wave Scattering Control Devices; Optical Polarization Bistable Element Based on Faraday Cell; Intracavity Faraday Rotation; Polarization Modulator of He-Ne Laser Radiation; Location Sounding of Snow Covers.
