Abstract

We illustrate the wave scattering from a multiscale rough surface modeled by a modulated correlation function. The modulation ratio, defined as the ratio of baseband correlation length and the modulated length, determines the degree of multiscale roughness. The dependence of bistatic scattering on the modulation ratio are investigated. Numerical results show that without considering the multiscale roughness, the scattering coefficients are overestimated at a small incident angle region but underestimated at a large scattering region. Radar wave scattering from multiscale rough surface is highly frequency selective. As an application example, we compare the model predictions with two independent sets of measurement data. The results demonstrate that the model predictions with modulation effects are in good agreement with the measurement data.
