Abstract
Analysis of electromagnetic wave propagation and scattering in a random med ium is a field of great interest. This research field becomes more importan t if we consider the study of phsyical effects on wave propagation and scat tering from targets in random media, Curvature of the targets' cross-sectio ns plays an important parameter in the radar detection problem. In previous study, analysis of scattering data from nonconvex conducting targets has p ointed out to the effect of target configuration together with both effects of the spatial coherence length of incident waves around the target and th e double passage on the backscattering enhancement. Here, we make sure this fact by considering targets with relatively large sizes in continuous rand om media for H-wave incidence. We assume the cross-section of targets to be smoothly deformed contour comprising concave and convex portions.
