Improved van Zyl Polarimetric Decomposition Lessening the Overestimation of Volume Scattering Power

This paper improves van Zyl’s Nonnegative Eigenvalue Decomposition (NNED). Orientation angle compensation and helix scattering are introduced to the decomposition. The volume scattering parameters that explain the most cross-polarized power are selected. If volume scattering and helix scattering exp...
