Future operational weather radars are likely to implement hybrid polarization, an operating mode that involves transmitting 45° slant polarization and receiving the horizontal and vertical components of the backscattered field. In this work, the degree of polarization at slant send is theoretically considered and experimentally evaluated from fully polarimetric signatures in order to assess its potential for use in next generation operational weather radars.
