The radar WISDOM for the ExoMars rover mission Interpretation of the polarimetric data and contribution to the operations
Résumé
WISDOM (Water Ice Subsurface Deposits Observation on Mars) is a ground penetrating radar designed to characterize the shallow subsurface of Mars, it will be accommodated on the rover of the ExoMars mission and will provide global information about the landing site geological history as well as accurate descriptions of the buried structures that will be essential to collect the samples at depth. In this paper, we focus on the tools that have been developed to process the signal and the polarimetric data in order to achieve the technical and scientific objectives of WISDOM and contribute to the success of the rover mission. Experimental data acquired in natural environments will be shown and analyzed.
