A timely and authoritative guide to the state of the art of wavescattering
Scattering of Electromagnetic Waves offers in three volumes acomplete and up-to-date treatment of wave scattering by randomdiscrete scatterers and rough surfaces. Written by leadingscientists who have made important contributions to wave scatteringover three decades, this new work explains the principles, methods,and applications of this rapidly expanding, interdisciplinaryfield. It covers both introductory and advanced material andprovides students and researchers in remote sensing as well asimaging, optics, and electromagnetic theory with a one-stopreference to a wealth of current research results. Plus, Scatteringof Electromagnetic Waves contains detailed discussions of bothanalytical and numerical methods, including cutting-edge techniquesfor the recovery of earth/land parametric information.
The three volumes are entitled respectively Theories andApplications, Numerical Simulation, and Advanced Topics. In thesecond volume, Numerical Simulations, Leung Tsang (University ofWashington) Jin Au Kong (MIT), Kung-Hau Ding (Air Force ResearchLab), and Chi On Ao (MIT) cover:
* Layered media simulations
* Rough surface and volume scattering simulations
* Dense media models and simulations
* Electromagnetic scattering by discrete scatterers and a buriedobject
* Scattering by vertical cylinders above a surface
* Electromagnetic waves scattering by vegetation
* Computational methods and programs used for performing varioussimulations
