II. HUYNEN-EULER POLARIZATION INVARIANTS

As they describe the polarization properties of reciprocal radar objects and media (within the framework of the Sinclair scattering matrix concept), the Huynen-Euler group invariants (e.g., see [6]) au: please cite [7] where applicable are widely ...

{My remark}

Work [6] is cited only twice. The second (and the last) time it is cited in the paper in the sentence beginning before Eqn. (5). In this given case, it is impossible to replace [6] to [7] because the scattering matrix expression in the form of (5) was not in [7].
