Monte Carlo simulation of the electromagnetic wave propagation in the duststorm

Monte Carlo simulations of the extinction rate of electromagnetic wave propagation in the duststorm were presented. The numerical procedure was based on the multiple scattering and independent scattering. The calculated multiple scattering attenuation rate is in good agreement with the measured one, but differs significantly from those obtained under the independent scattering assumption. At the same time, the factors of size parameter, frequency of incident wave, the angle of incident, and sands permittivity and water content have been considered in the attenuation of electromagnetic wave propagation in the duststorm. Numerical results obtained showed that the attenuation rate increases as the fractional volume, frequency of incident wave and sands permittivity increase, and as the angle of incident increases, the attenuation rate decreases.

Interaction between ultra short pulses and a dense scattering medium by Monte Carlo simulation: consideration of particle size effect

With an enough short-pulse incident to an individual particle, elementary scattering modes can be observed: internal or external reflection, refraction and diffraction. Simulation of pulse propagation in dense scattering medium is usually computed for large observation time, so that time delays of pulse interaction with the particles are negligible compared to propagation times between particle. A Monte Carlo method is proposed to compute the propagation of an incident 100 fs laser pulse in dense medium taking into account time-dependent scattering characteristics of particle: observation time of scattered light is less than 5000 fs. Two extreme cases are exemplified: predominance of direct and single-scattered photons appears in a thin time window for small particles (1 μm). On the contrary multiple scattering is always predominant and scrambles the transmitted signal for large particles (100 μm).

Rain induced attenuation for 3mm wave band and its measurement system

The theory of multiple scattering is used to obtain the solution for the plane wave propagation through a plane parallel medium of thickness L containing randomly distributed nonspherial particles. The coherent field and the total field are studied, respectively. The numerical results are good agreement with experimental data and the multiple scattering effects must be included. A 3mm wave propagation measurement system was made on a 0.8km terrestrial link.     

太赫兹波在雾中的多重散射特性

太赫兹(THz)波作为微波和毫米波的延伸,它所提供的通信带宽和容量远大于毫米波。在随机介质中传播时,不但会发生时域和空域的形变,介质中的粒子还会对入射波发生散射,这些都会使得脉冲信号发生衰减。根据Mie理论与随机离散分布粒子的波传播与散射理论,计算了THz波信号入射下雾滴粒子的消光系数。结合雾滴粒子谱分布,得到了雾媒质的平均体系散射特性,采用蒙特卡罗法得到了平流雾对THz信号的多重散射特性,计算了THz波段信号对平流雾的透过率与反射率,分析了THz波段信号的前向、后向散射特性随散射角的分布。结果表明,低能见度大气环境中,雾对THz波产生的吸收和衰减不容忽视。相关研究结果对THz在大气传输、通信等方面的应用具有重要意义。     

Rain induced cross polarization at millimeter waves in a Xi''an environment

The rainfall intensity accumulative distribution, raindrop size and canting angle distributions in Xi'an(108.9 E, 34.3 N) have been obtained from data measured over a long period of time. Rain induced crose polarization in this environment has been studied. The crose polarization discrimination, XPD, was compu ted over a frequency range of 19.3 to 300 GHz for non spherical drops. The variations of XPD with frequency, rainfall rate and copolar attenuation, CPA, were investigated. The computational resulte are in good agreement with experimental data. A mathematical relationship was established between the XPD and CPA, raindrop canting angle, which result is in good agreement with experimental data. The cumulative distribution of rain induced cross polarization for eleven years and in month have been ob tained with the cumulative distribution of the rain rate from the data measured from 1975 to 1985. The role of multiple scattering also has been discussed, it is shown that the multiple scattering play an important part in short millimeter wave.

Monte Carlo simulation of light scattering from size distributed sub-micron spherical CdS particles in a volume element

Simulation of polarized light scattering by spherical particles having modal radius of 180 nm is presented in this paper. A Monte Carlo method which is based on the Stokes-Mueller formalism developed in ANSI Standard C-language is used for simulation. Single scattering is considered in our program with monodispersed sub-micron sized spherical CdS particles. We have considered only θ dependent scattering as described by Mie theory for spherical CdS particles. The experiments for studying light scattering properties of these particles were conducted in a designed and developed laser based light scattering studies setup. The simulation results were compared with experimental results and theoretical results obtained purely from Mie theory. The closeness of agreement or disagreement between these results is discussed in this paper.     

Reverse electric field Monte Carlo simulation for vector radiative transfer in the atmosphere

In this paper, a reverse electric field Monte Carlo （REMC） method is proposed to study the vector radiation transfer in the atmosphere. The REMC is based on tracing the multiply scattered electric field to simulate the vector transmitted radiance. The reflected intensities with different total optical depth values are obtained, which accord well with the results in the previous research. Stokes vector and the degree of polarization are numerically investigated. The simulation result shows that when the solar zenith angle is determined, the zenith angle of detector has two points, of which the degree of polarization does not change with the ground albedo and the optical depth. The two points change regularly with the solar zenith angle. Moreover, our REMC method can be applied to the vector radiative transfer in the atmosphere-ocean system.     

Monte Carlo simulation of the interaction between an ultra-short pulse and a strongly scattering medium: The case of large particles

Simulations of the transmission of a short light pulse (50 fs) through a strongly scattering medium constituted by water droplets (50-150 μm diameter) are presented. Temporal emerging signals are computed using a Monte Carlo technique. In case of large particles with respect to the pulse duration, the time delay related to the interaction between light and individual particles has to be taken into account, in addition to the time delay related to the travel of light between particles. After careful comparisons with temporal Lorenz-Mie theory, it has been chosen to pre-calculate scattering characteristics of individual droplets using Debye series. Transmitted signals in forward direction and in a small temporal window (0-400 fs) are presented, showing that temporal information on particle size are still observable facing strongly scattering media.

Experimentally validated Raman Monte Carlo simulation for a cuboid object to obtain Raman spectroscopic signatures for hidden material

In conventional Raman spectroscopic measurements of liquids or surfaces the preferred geometry for detection of the Raman signal is the backscattering (or reflection) mode. For non‐transparent layered materials, sub‐surface Raman signals have been retrieved using spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS), usually with light collection in the same plane as the point of excitation. However, as a result of multiple scattering in a turbid medium, Raman photons will be emitted in all directions. In this study, Monte Carlo simulations for a three‐dimensional layered sample with finite geometry have been performed to confirm the detectability of Raman signals at all angles and at all sides of the object. We considered a non‐transparent cuboid container (high density polyethylene) with explosive material (ammonium nitrate) inside. The simulation results were validated with experimental Raman intensities. Monte Carlo simulation results reveal that the ratio of sub‐surface to surface signals improves at geometries other than backscattering. In addition, we demonstrate through simulations the effects of the absorption and scattering coefficients of the layers, and that of the diameter of the excitation beam. The advantage of collecting light from all possible 4π angles, over other collection modes, is that this technique is not geometry specific and molecular identification of layers underneath non‐transparent surfaces can be obtained with minimal interference from the surface layer. To what extent all sides of the object will contribute to the total signal will depend on the absorption and scattering coefficients and the physical dimensions.

RWMCS – An alternative random walk Monte Carlo code to simulate light scattering in biological suspensions

In biological suspensions, the forward light scattering is done mainly by the contribution of the suspended cells. The multiple scattering is almost always unavoidable, its contribution being described by Monte Carlo simulations or by approximate analytical formula. The Monte Carlo approach we propose moves one photon at a time and checks all scattering centers to find, at each simulation step, which one will scatter the photon. The validation of the simulation results is performed by comparing the obtained angular distribution with the predictions of the effective phase function theory reported recently in the literature and with the angle resolved experimental measurements performed on human red blood cells (RBCs) in suspensions at different hematocrits. The results show a good agreement in the small concentration range.
