  • Abstract
    TerraSAR-X is an operational and advanced SAR-satellite system for scientific and commercial applications that was launched on June 15th, 2007. DLR acquired the quadratic TerraSAR-X data in the Dual Receive Antenna Campaign in this year for scientific purpose. This study applies four-component decomposition with rotated coherency matrix which is a very efficient methodology for target detection and terrain classification.
