Abstract
Scattering of the electromagnetic waves by a randomly inhomogeneous electrically gyrotropic slab are studied using the perturbation method. Second order statistical moments of the ordinary and extraordinary waves scattered by the magnetized plasma slab are obtained using the boundary conditions for an arbitrary correlation function of electron density fluctuations. Normalized correlation functions at quasi-longitudinal propagation along the external magnetic field are calculated for the carrier frequency 0.1 MHz and 40 MHz. Isolines of the normalized variance of Faraday angle are constructed for the anisotropic Gaussian correlation function at various anisotropy factors of irregularities. Obtained results are in a good agreement with the experimental data.

Summary
At the present time the features of light propagation in random media have been very well studied [1]. Scintillation effects and the angle-of-arrival of scattered electromagnetic waves by turbulent anisotropic magnetized ionospheric plasma slab for both power-law and anisotropic Gaussian correlation functions of electron density fluctuations were investigated analytically and numerically in [2,3,4]. Statistical characteristics of the amplitude and phase of scattered radiation by turbulent magnetized plasma slab with electron density and magnetic field fluctuations via the perturbation method were analyzed in [5]; phase portraits of the amplitude and phase correlation functions have been constructed. Electric field components of the scattered electromagnetic waves by magnetized plasma slab and second order statistical moments for arbitrary correlation function of electron density fluctuations are obtained.
