Abstract

The scattering and reflecting properties of surfaces which are perfectly conducting but which have random irregularities are investigated in a statistical manner. The surface is assumed to be not too precipitous. With a statistical model for the surface, the scattering of light by a disturbed water surface is considered, and the method is used to calculate the amount of sea clutter observed in centrimetric radar. A comparison with some observations is made.
