In polarimetric radars, corresponding to the polarized antennas, exploiting waveform diversity along the polarization dimension becomes accessible. In this article, we aim to maximize the signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) of a polarimetric radar by optimizing the transmit polarimetric w...
