| Abstract | Fields due to electromagnetic waves propagating in continuous random media are calculated efficiently, by a method that uses a current generator, M. Tateiba et al. (1992). This method solves the problem of wave scattering from targets in random media as a boundary value and this technique of solution is important for radar detection of a target of finite size. This method uses two operators: the current generator that transforms the incident wave falling on the target into the surface current and Green's function in the random medium. In earlier investigation, Z. Q. Meng et al. (1996), numerical results for radar cross-section (RCS) of conducting convex bodies such as circular and elliptic cylinders have elucidated that the spatial coherence length (SCL) of incident waves around a target is one of the key parameters for the clarification of random media effects on the RCS. The shape of the target is one of the parameters that constitute an important factor in the radar detection problem. Recently we have presented numerical results for the backscattering enhancement in RCS of conducting cylinder with a concave-convex cross-section. It has been found that the target configuration together with the SCL of the incident wave around the target play a leading role in determination of the RCS of partially convex targets. To render a satisfactory understanding of the backscattering enhancement behavior for the concave-convex targets in random media, we analyze the scattering problems for plane wave propagating in continuous random media and beam waves in free space for vertical polarization. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
