Abstract :
This paper deals with wave scattering by a body in a continuous random medium and multiple scattering by a discrete random medium with many dielectric particles; in particular, addresses methods for analyzing the above two types of scattering and shows the scattering characteristics computed by the methods. The application is also discussed to remote sensing of water contents in soil. The results presented here have been derived from my laboratory.
