Le REM [rayonnement électromagnétique] se caractérise [notamment] par [...] la polarisation, qui caractérise la variation du plan dans lequel oscille l'onde.

La polarisation représente la mesure de l'orientation du plan d'oscillation du signal radar, déterminée par l'antenne du radar. En effet, l'antenne d'un radar peut être ajustée de façon différente à l'émission et à la réception du signal. Les radars utilisés en télédétection sont habituellement conçus pour transmettre un signal polarisé soit horizontalement, soit verticalement. De même, le radar peut recevoir un signal polarisé dans le plan horizontal, dans le plan vertical ou encore dans les deux plans. On désigne habituellement le plan horizontal par la lettre H et le plan vertical par la lettre V. Une image radar peut donc représenter un signal HH (transmission horizontale, réception horizontale), VV (transmission verticale, réception verticale), HV (transmission horizontale, réception verticale) ou vice versa. 4, record 13, French, - polarisation

RADARSAT-2 est conçu pour transmettre alternativement un signal H et un signal V de même que pour recevoir simultanément ces signaux, créant ainsi des données polarimétriques. Cette particularité permet au capteur de générer des images dans une variété de polarisations (HH, VV, HV et VH). Les données radars en polarisation parallèle ou croisée présentent des caractéristiques spécifiques liées aux propriétés des surfaces observées. Il est donc possible d'accentuer certaines propriétés de surfaces, telles l'humidité ou la rugosité du sol, en choisissant la polarisation appropriée ou encore en combinant diverses polarisations. 4, record 13, French, - polarisation

The term reinforcing is used basically to mean tension or membrane reinforcing, that is, the ability to distribute a concentrated load over a larger area of the subgrade, thus avoiding local overloading of the bearing capacity. A closer analysis of the reinforcing function of a geotextile laid between the base course and the subgrade, reveals that in addition to membrane reinforcing there is a second phenomenon which improves the load bearing capacity of the structure by providing horizontal reinforcing or lateral restraint. Because of this the geotextile works against horizontal deformation where it is in contact with the base and subgrade. 1, record 23, English, - reinforcing%20function
