Abstract :
We propose and set out analytical formulations based on electromagnetic asymptotical methods to evaluate the power scattered by natural and man-made rough surfaces. Then we are interested in studying the evolution, according to the surface roughness and dielectric parameters, of scattering coefficients in the process to set up coefficients data base.
