Abstract: | Abstract The problem of electromagnetic wave scattering by a slightly rough interface in an arbitrarily layered medium is solved by a small-perturbation method. The bistatic amplitude of scattering as well as the scattering cross sections for statistically rough surfaces are calculated for linear polarized waves. Along with scattering into up-going waves in a homogeneous medium and scattering cross sections in down-going waves into a layered medium, scattering amplitudes from a rough interface in the arbitrarily layered medium are obtained. |
