Abstract

Chaos and fractals have gained extensive attention since they were proposed as two useful tools in studying nonlinear dynamic systems. The combination of the two theories has achieved obvious effect on practical application for their inherent relation. This paper has discoursed the applications of chaos and fractal in the field of EM (electromagnetic) scattering, mainly on rough surface modeling, analysis of sea clutters, scatters synthesis and scatter communication. It is obvious that chaos and fractal theories have great superiority over traditional ones in dealing with nonlinear problems. This paper shows that chaos and fractals have played an important part in various aspects of electromagnetic scattering.
