Abstract :
The distortion and depolarisation of millimetre pulse waves, propagating in large spheroidal water scatterers, have been measured in order to determine the effect of multiple scattering on the pulse shape. These measurements have been found to conform with the previously published theoretical results for a rain medium, although the scattering parameters are different
