generalized vector expression for the coherence:
The accuracy of height estimation depends on the quality of interferogram, the indicator of which is complex coherence. We are always attempting to search for the best projection vector combination to acquire the highest interferometric coherence.
Present methods
Cloude & Papathanassiou algorithm (C&P): By constructing a Lagrangian polynomial for the coherence, we can obtain the optimum coherence by solution of two different mechanisms.
Cons:1, introduce polarimetric phase which usually happens in the presence of severe temporal decorrelation2, instability mathematically
Pros:1, optimum solution globally

Coherence optimization with GA
Owing to the merit of capabilities of optimizing globally it is also reasonable to look for the best projection pair using GA to estimate the optimal interferometric coherence
The fundamental concept of GA is dependent on natural selection in the evolutionary process, including inheritance, mutation, selection and crossover.
Advantages:
more likely converge toward a global
optimum
no need of linearization of the problem
more robust

Each individual of population has six chromosomes to be developed in single-mechanism: [ 1 6]v v
When optimizing the second coherence we must add a constraint:*

So the last two chromosomes can be represented by the first four as:4

Conclusions
Compared with the C&P algorithm, under the control of single-mechanism coherence in GA is more stable without polarimetric phase introduced and hence is more proper to interpret the practical scattering process.
Although the optimum coherence in GA is smaller than that in C&P, the latter two coherences are generally larger because it has larger space when searching the last two coherence.
Compared with other coherences in single-mechanism, the optimum coherence in GA is larger.
Besides, the three projection pairs in GA are absolutely orthogonal and so they can reflect the situation of three orthogonal scattering components in the case of volume scattering.
