| Abstract | The polarization of incident waves is one of the key factors in radar detection and remote sensing problems. In a previous study, attention was drawn to the anomalous increase in the radar crosssection (RCS) of a target in a random medium that occurs with H-polarization. This large increase occurs with a small-size target and is attributed to the coupling between the direct and creeping waves. In this work, we aim to probe the effect of the creeping waves on the scattering waves for circular wave polarization and compare it with the previous results. Therefore, we can control the target detection by choosing the proper polarization, which does not lead to anomalous phenomena. In doing so, we present numerical results for RCS and analyse the characteristics of the enhancement in the RCS (ERCS) behaviour of targets in random media. In this regard, we assume partially convex targets of different configurations. We consider the case in which a directly incident wave is produced by a line source distributed uniformly along the axis parallel to the conducting cylinder (target) axis. Then we can deal with this scattering problem two-dimensionally under the condition of strong continuous random media with large local scale size. |
