Abstract :
Polarization decomposition is an important approach for polarimetric SAR image classification. In this paper, decomposition methods with different data format are discussed. Especially, A new decomposition method which is Krogagger decomposition with T matrix is proposed. Simulation results show that decompositions with T matrix have less speckle.
