Scattering on Multi-Scale Rough Surfaces

  • Chapter

Abstract

We present a method to recover a fractal dimension of a multi-scale rough surface, the so-called correlation dimension, from the knowledge of the far-field scattered intensity. The results are validated by numerical experiments on Weierstrass-like surfaces.
