Abstract:
The report summarizes the objectives and results of research on propagation in random media conducted under the contract. The principal results include the numerical solution of the partial-differential equation for the fourth moment of a two-dimensional plane wave propagating in a random medium and the preparation of an extensive discussion of the applications of multiple-scattering theories in the analysis of the effects of atmospheric turbulence in radar, imaging, communication, and detection systems.
