this script demonstrates the polarimetric statistics functions
in the toolbox.

 Part of the Matlab Radar Toolbox v0.11 by Glen Davidson at www.radarworks.com

 Remember that most commands will accept a general positive-definite covariance
 matrix, but the statistics are based on two channels so we just pass a single rho.
 Do your own vectorisation if the routines are slow...!

 It attempts to reproduce some of the figures from 2 good papers on Pol. Stats:

 Imagery', J-S. Lee, K.W. Hoppel, S.A. Mango and A.R. Miller. IEEE TGRS (32)5 Sep 1994
