Abstract

The first Born approximation has proven to be a successful tool to describe scattering from impenetrable interfaces at high frequency providing the existence of secondary scattering from adjacent parts of the surface is unimportant. This usually means that low grazing angle scattering is avoided for a suitably rough surface where secondary scattering becomes important. To treat secondary scattering from adjacent parts of the interface, one must resort to higher‐order Born terms. In particular, the second Born term can account for one secondary event which becomes important at a suitably low grazing angle (depending on surface roughhess). In this study, a formulation based on the second Born treatment for scattering is presented and the results are compared with the conventional first Born contribution.
