In this letter, a special unitary SU(3) matrix group is exploited for coherency matrix transformations to decouple the energy between orthogonal states of polarization. This decoupling results in the minimization of the cross-polarization power along with the removal of some off-diagonal terms of coherency matrix. The proposed unitary transformations are utilized on the basis of the underlying dominant scattering mechanism. By doing so, the reduced power from the cross-polarization channel is always concentrated on the underlying dominant co-polar scattering component. This makes it unique in comparison to state-of-the-art techniques. The proposed methodology can be adopted to optimize the coherency matrix to be used for the model-based decomposition methods. To verify this, pioneer three-component decomposition model is implemented using the proposed optimized coherency matrix of two different test sites. The comparative studies are analyzed to show the improvements over state-of-the-art techniques. |
