Partial Wave Analysis (PWA) is widely used in high energy experimental physics. It is a useful method for analyzing the correlation between the momenta of final state particles in order to determine the masses, widths and spin-parities of intermediate resonances. Way more important is that it can provide a better phase space description to help understanding the interaction of light hadrons. Thus PWA is an important tool for precise standard model tests. This report gives a brief introduction about PWA from 3-body to 4-body decay.
