Invariant polarimetric parameters for signal processing in weather radar

In this paper we introduce and check a new description of polarimetric parameters that are asymptotically invariant to the group of all monotonous transformations of input signals. In particular, this can give a possibility to estimate pure correlation between polarimetric signals independently on statistical characteristics of initial data. This copula-based approach is applied to signal processing in polarimetric meteorological radar.
