Polarimetric Decomposition With an Urban Area Descriptor for Compact Polarimetric SAR Data [PDF]
The compact polarimetric (CP) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can alleviate the drawbacks of the fully polarimetric (FP) SAR and provide more target information as compared to the conventional single polarimetric and dual polarimetric mode.

Polarimetric decomposition for forest biomass retrieval [PDF]
In this paper, the decomposition of fully polarimetric SAR data into three canonical scattering mechanisms is investigated with respect to forest biomass retrieval. It is demonstrated that the dominant backscattering contribution depends strongly on the frequency, incidence angle, and stand condition.

ALTERNATIVE TO FOUR-COMPONENT DECOMPOSITION FOR POLARIMETRIC SAR [PDF]
There are more unknowns than equations to solve for previous four-component decomposition methods. In this case, the nonnegative power of each scattering mechanism has to be determined with some assumptions and physical power constraints. This paper presents a new decomposition scheme, which models the measured matrix after polarimetric orientation ...

Freeman-Durden Decomposition with Oriented Dihedral Scattering
In this paper, when the azimuth direction of polarimetric Synthetic Aperature Radars (SAR) differs from the planting direction of crops, the double bounce of the incident electromagnetic waves from the terrain surface to the growing crops is investigated

General Two-Stage Model-Based Three-Component Hybrid Compact Polarimetric SAR Decomposition Method
Polarimetric decomposition is an effective way for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data interpretation. As for hybrid compact polarimetric (HCP) SAR, there are mainly two different types of decomposition methods, including wave-dichotomy-theorem-based and
