Abstract
In this paper the angular memory effect of discrete random media in the azimuthal plane was investigated using numerical and experimental techniques. Good agreement was achieved between the experimental and numerical results. Both results showed rapid angular decorrelation in the backscattering direction, which is in direct agreement with previous studies on the angular memory effect in the two-dimensional case
