Abstract

Theoretical investigation of the propagation properties of waves in a stochastically distributed environment reflects a certain interest owing to its many practical applications, including calculation of electronic conductance in crystals [117], wave localization [118] and dumping of signals in the atmosphere or water [119]. A series of different methods has been applied to this problem, among which path integral techniques [120, 121, 122] are of considerable interest. In this chapter we investigate wave transmission in a randomly distributed medium using the GER method.
