Abstract - One of the main advantages of polarimetric techniques is the possibility to separate scattering contributions of different
nature. For this purpose the scattering matrix is analyzed with various techniques in order to extract information about the scattering process.
Many different approaches for the so called target decomposition have been proposed in literature and shall be discussed in the following section.
