More Information
Summary:An iterative method in the Kirchhoff approximation is proposed for high frequency multiple electromagnetic scattering from two-dimensional dielectric sea surface. The multiple interaction of the scattering field is characterized with the corrected electromagnetic currents of the wind-driven sea surface. The actual surface currents are approximated with the iterative solution of the corrected currents. A newly developed sea spectrum, Elfouhaily spectrum, is utilized to build the sea surface model. The shadowing correction is improved by the Dept-Buffer algorithm. The validity of the iterative Kirchhoff approximation is verified by the agreement of backscattering coefficients with the measured data.
