These optimum polarization states will be related to different independent scattering mechanisms that lead to the locally best height estimation. In case of buried mine detection, it is expected to find two coherence maxima: the mine and the surface clutter (or air-ground interface). After generating the two interferograms corresponding to these optimum polarization states, one can extract the height difference between them. The resulting height difference map will exhibit some peaks at those positions where the mines are buried, whereas it will remain close to zero at those zones of the image where only a single natural surface scattering process can be found. 3, record 1, English, - optimum%20polarization
