“…The Dual-Frequency Synthetic Aperture Radar (DFSAR) aboard India's second lunar mission Chandrayaan-2 is the first fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) outside Earth orbit. The architecture of this radar instrument supports multiple polarimetric modes of operation (Putrevu et al 2016(Putrevu et al , 2020, and illustrates the value of dual-frequency quad polarimetry for lunar and planetary applications. Regarding applications to the lunar surface, the main novelties provided by this instrument are the following:…”

“…The DFSAR instrument is designed with a configuration that enables operations in dual-frequency, quad-and compact-polarity imaging modes to collect information about the scattering properties of the lunar surface at multiple look-angle geometry. For a complete review of technical specifications, system design and configuration of the DFSAR instrument, the reader is referred to Putrevu et al (2016) and Putrevu et al (2020). In this section, we briefly describe the system configuration, followed by calibration of DFSAR data products.…”

“…The added information from full-polarimetric data will allow greater confidence in the results derived particularly in detecting the presence and estimating the quantity of water ice in the polar region. The DFSAR is designed, developed and provided by SAC, Ahmedabad (Putrevu et al, 2016).…”

“…Full‐polarimetry (with coherent measurements in HH, HV, VV, and VH polarization combinations) is considered to be gold standard in radar polarimetric studies and therefore, enables an extended measurement dimension to uniquely characterize the targets of interest. L‐ & S‐band Dual‐Frequency Synthetic Aperture Radar (DFSAR) onboard Chandrayaan‐2 (Ch2) orbiter (2019) is the first SAR with full‐polarimetric capability in a lunar orbit, and therefore, meets the above expectations of measurements (Putrevu et al., 2016, 2020b).…”
