Abstract
Using a first-order vector perturbation theory, we calculate some scat tering characteristics of surfaces which have both surface roughness a nd subsurface permittivity variations. These variations are treated as random variables where the roughness yields phase perturbations and t he permittivity variations yield reflectance perturbations. Numerical results are given for both types of scattering.
