In recent years, there has been an increased interest in the use of
polarization effects for radar and electromagnetic imaging problems
(References 1, 2, and 3). The problem of electro magnetic imaging
can be divided into the following areas: (1) Propagation of the
Stokes' vector from the transmitter to the target region through
various atmospheric conditions (rain, dust, fog, clouds,
turbulence, etc.). (2) Scattering of the Stokes' vector from the
object. (3) Scattering of the Stokes' vector from the rough
surface, terrain, and the volume scattering. (4) Propagation of the
Stokes' vector from the target region to the receiver. (5) The
characteristics of the receiver relating the Stokes' vector to the
output. The propagation characteristics of the Stokes' vector
through various media can be described by the equation of transfer.
Even though the scalar equation of transfer has been studied
extensively in the past, the vector equation of transfer has not
received as much attention. In recent years, however, a need for
further study of the vector radiative transfer theory has become
increasingly evident and several important studies have been
reported. This paper presents a general formulation of the vector
theory of radiative transfer under general anisotropic scattering
conditions. Some useful solutions are also presented 4 8 for
several practical situations. - 2. GENERAL FORMULATION OF VECTOR

problem Shovlll in Figure 1.
