  • Abstract
    To study the angular behavior of the usual backscattering integral, a numerical example is given and the integral is evaluated without approximating the surface correlation function. Results obtained are compared with approximate analytic evaluations. It is shown that either one of the two possible approximations may be acceptable, depending upon the incident frequency.
