Acoustic Wave Backscattering in a Random Inhomogeneous Ocean Sediment
The backscattering of sound by inhomogeneities of the ocean sediment may provide a remarkable effect on underwater acoustic wave propagation. It may also be used as a means of remotely estimating complicated sediment properties. In this paper, a theoretical model of acoustic waves backscattered from an inhomogeneous sediment is formulated based on the Born approximation. The model not only cont...
متن کاملElectromagnetically induced coherent backscattering.
We demonstrate a strong coherent backward wave oscillation using forward propagating fields only. This is achieved by applying laser fields to an ultradispersive medium with proper chosen detunings to excite a molecular vibrational coherence that corresponds to a backward propagating wave. The physics then has much in common with the propagation of ultraslow light. Applications to coherent scat...
متن کاملCoherent backscattering spectroscopy.
Coherent backscattering (CBS) of light in random media has been previously investigated by use of coherent light sources. Here we report a novel method of CBS measurement that combines low spatial coherence, broadband illumination, and spectrally resolved detection. We show that low spatial coherence illumination leads to an anomalously broad CBS peak and a dramatic speckle reduction; the latte...
متن کاملAn equivalent roughness model for seabed backscattering at very high frequencies using a band-matrix approach.
This work concerns modeling of very high frequency (>100 kHz) sonar images obtained from a sandy seabed. The seabed is divided into a discrete number of ID height profiles. For each height profile the backscattered pressure is computed by an integral equation method for interface scattering between two homogeneous media as formulated by Chan [IEEE Trans. Antennas Propag. 46, 142-149 (1998)]. Ho...
متن کاملImaging of Buried Objects from Experimental Backscattering Time-Dependent Measurements Using a Globally Convergent Inverse Algorithm
We consider the problem of imaging of objects buried under the ground using backscattering experimental time dependent measurements generated by a single point source or one incident plane wave. In particular, we estimate dielectric constants of those objects using the globally convergent inverse algorithm of Beilina and Klibanov. Our algorithm is tested on experimental data collected using a m...
