Title :
Reflection of microwave LOS signal from rough surface in presence of surface duct

Abstract :
A theoretical analysis of multipath fading due to the presence of surface duct and reflection from a rough surface, using local mode theory and grating theory is given. The surface roughness is modelled by a periodic function in one dimension. Numerical results of space diversity are presented
