Abstract:

We analyze the basic theory of Huynen target decomposition methods. We also analyze the basic concepts of Barnes-Holm decomposition and Yang decomposition and emphasize their complementarity and improvement to the original Huynen target decomposition. Finally, the practical polarimetric data sets are used to examine the three target decomposition methods and the advantages and disadvantages of the three methods are analyzed.

Key words: polarimetric SAR, Huynen target decomposition, Muller matrix, distributed target
