Impact of Medium Randomness on Radar Detection Accuracy with Plane E-Wave Polarization

Progress In Electromagnetics Research M, Vol. 68, 133-142, 2018
Abstract
Investigation of backscattering enhancement of waves propagation in random medium is a crucial factor in remote sensing. Medium effects on waves backscattering are important to measure the error rate in radar detection of targets with a finite size. In this paper, we present numerical results for the backscattering enhancement factor assuming different medium parameters and target configuration. Convex illumination region of partially convex surface is assumed. We consider targets to take large sizes of about five wavelengths and a plane wave incidence in the far field. Waves propagation and scattering from objects are calculated in free space and random medium while considering Epolarization of incident wave.
