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 thethird volume, Advanced Topics, Leung Tsang (University ofWashington) and Jin Au Kong (MIT), cover:
* Two-dimensional random rough surface scattering
* Kirchhoff and related methods for rough surface scattering
* Analytic theory of volume scattering based on cascading oflayers
* Analytic wave theory for medium with permittivityfluctuations
* Multiple scattering theory for discrete scatterers
* Quasicrystalline approximation in dense media scattering
* Dense media scattering
* Backscattering enhancement
