A ray-tracing model was used to derive the light scattering Mueller matrix element curves for a dipole near a perfect surface as a function of incident angle, scattering angle, and surface refractive index. This system represents a fundamental system composed of a perfect plane surface and a perfect (Rayleigh) scatterer.
