Signals of opportunity (SoOp) has the potential to offer cost-effective global remote sensing for land applications. Because of the complexity of SoOp scattering over land, comprehensive bistatic scattering models and simulators can help demonstrate its feasibility. To investigate this potential, we have developed a generalized, fully polarimetric forward model: the SoOp Coherent Bistatic Scattering (SCoBi) model. We have also developed a simulator framework, employing the SCoBi model to create an analysis environment for a community of researchers, scientists, and users with little or no electromagnetic background. We aim to enable studying and analyzing new SoOp methods with varying configurations; determining the optimal cases for specific missions; and generating, visualizing, and analyzing test data with the help of SCoBi.

Opportunity Coherent Bistatic Sc​​attering Simulator：一个免费的开源模拟器框架

机会信号 (SoOp) 有可能为土地应用提供具有成本效益的全球遥感。由于 SoOp 在陆地上散射的复杂性，全面的双基地散射模型和模拟器可以帮助证明其可行性。为了研究这种潜力，我们开发了一个广义的、完全极化的前向模型：SoOp 相干双静态散射 (SCoBi) 模型。我们还开发了一个模拟器框架，采用 SCoBi 模型为几乎没有或没有电磁背景的研究人员、科学家和用户社区创建分析环境。我们的目标是能够研究和分析具有不同配置的新 SoOp 方法；确定特定任务的最佳案例；并在 SCoBi 的帮助下生成、可视化和分析测试数据。
