Scattering of electromagnetic waves by rough perfectly conducting circular cylinders

A numerical method is proposed for computing the normalized correlation functions of the real and imaginary parts of the field scattered from a statistically rough perfectly conducting circular cylinder. The deviation of the surface from its mean radius is assumed to be small. The correlation function of the far-field is related to the correlation function of the scattering object by an integral equation. Far-field correlation functions are found for two types of surface correlation functions: the delta function and a periodic exponential function.
