Abstract

Based on the basic principle of PolInSAR and the coherent scattering model of random volume over ground, the inversion of forest parameters of PolInSAR can be characterized by a six-dimensional non-linear parameter optimization problem. However, the global optimal can't be obtained using the traditional gradient-based optimization algorithms. Therefore, a global optimization inversion scheme of forest parameters of PolInSAR based on genetic algorithm is presented. We generate a validity test using SIR-C L-Band repeat-pass PolInSAR data of the area of Tien Shan, China. The preliminary results accord with the range of the parameters of the fact. Performances of different GAs and effects of different parameters are compared. SGA is influenced by the mutation rate strongly, but GA with tournament of two generations is independent of the mutation rate.
