Abstract
In this paper, we present an approach for the modeling of non-specular scattering at rough surfaces in the THz frequency range by means of the Kirchhoff scattering theory. The practical implementation of the Kirchhoff model in a ray tracing algorithm is discussed. Ray tracing simulation results are compared with measurements for the purpose of validation. The size of the relevant active scattering region of a rough surface is investigated.
