The aim of the thesis is the software processing of data acquired by PASIN2 (Polarimetric Airborne Scientific Instrument, mark 2). It is a 150-MHz coherent pulsed synthetic aperture radar (SAR) for 3D imagery beneath the ice thickness of the Antarctic, designed and operated by the British Antarctic...
