Previous studies have shown that scattering mechanism ambiguity and negative power issues still exist in model-based polarization target decomposition algorithms, even though deorientation processing is implemented. One possible reason for this is that the dynamic range of the model itself is limited and cannot fully satisfy the mixed scenario. To address these problems, we propose a hybrid polarimetric target decomposition algorithm (GRH) with a generalized volume scattering model (GVSM) and a random particle cloud volume scattering model (RPCM). The adaptive volume scattering model used in GRH incorporates GVSM and RPCM to model the volume scattering component of the regions dominated by double-bounce scattering and the surface scattering, respectively, to expand the dynamic range of the model. In addition, GRH selects the volume scattering component between GVSM and RPCM adaptively according to the target dominant scattering mechanism of fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) data. The effectiveness of the proposed method was demonstrated using AirSAR dataset from San Francisco. Comparison studies were carried out to test the performance of GRH over several target decomposition algorithms. Experimental results show that the GRH outperforms the algorithms we tested in this study in decomposition accuracy and reduces the number of negative power pixels, demonstrating that the GRH can significantly avoid mechanism ambiguity and negative power issues.
