Abstract

An interesting, but rarely used technique in Polarimetric SAR interferometry is the enhancement of interferometric coherence by projection into an optimal Polarimetric state. In particular, newly developed methods for Polarimetric optimisation of multi-baseline coherences provide the possibility of simultaneous constrained coherence optimisation for more than one baseline. This technique can significantly improve the usefulness of long-term interferometric pairs and time-series, and appears, therefore, of interest to various fields of application. The aim of this paper is to discuss the correct derivation of multi-baseline differential interferograms with polarimetrically optimised coherence and to outline several possible areas of application, particularly in the field of differential interferometry and permanent scatterers.
