  • [PP2-1-2-2] Phasor
    A phasor represents a complex number and its phase and amplitude equivalent. Considering a complex SAR image’s pixel, the real and imaginary part can be represented by a 2D vector in Cartesian coordinates. Its corresponding phase and amplitude information corresponds to the direction and length of the vector, respectively.
