Validity conditions for the radiative transfer equation.
We compare the radiative transfer equation for media with constant refractive index with the radiative transfer equation for media with spatially varying refractive indices [J. Opt. A Pure App. Opt. 1, L1 (1999)] and obtain approximate conditions under which the former equation is accurate for modeling light propagation in scattering media with spatially varying refractive indices. These condit...
متن کاملA Forward GPS Multipath Simulator Based on the Vegetation Radiative Transfer Equation Model
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) have been widely used in navigation, positioning and timing. Nowadays, the multipath errors may be re-utilized for the remote sensing of geophysical parameters (soil moisture, vegetation and snow depth), i.e., GPS-Multipath Reflectometry (GPS-MR). However, bistatic scattering properties and the relation between GPS observables and geophysical parameter...
متن کاملSolution of the Radiative Transfer Equation in the Separable Approximation
A method for the fast and accurate solution of the radiative transfer equation in plane-parallel media with coherent isotropic scattering is presented. This largely analytical approach uses the formalism of meromorphic functions in order to obtain the total solution, i.e. the angle and depth variation of the radiation field. A discretization of space and angle coordinates is not required. For t...
متن کاملBoundary conditions for the diffusion equation in radiative transfer.
Using the method of images, we examine the three boundary conditions commonly applied to the surface of a semi-infinite turbid medium. We find that the image-charge configurations of the partial-current and extrapolated-boundary conditions have the same dipole and quadrupole moments and that the two corresponding solutions to the diffusion equation are approximately equal. In the application of...
متن کاملUtilizing the Radiative Transfer Equation in Optical Tomography
We propose a method which utilizes the radiative transfer equation in optical tomography. In this approach, the radiative transfer equation is used as light propagation model in those regions in which the assumptions of the diffusion theory are not valid and the diffusion approximation is used elsewhere. Both the radiative transfer equation and the diffusion approximation are numerically solved...
