Reflection of Plane Wave from Multi-layered Dielectrics
Estimation of the reflection coefficients of plane electromagnetic wave from the dielectrics is well understood. However, there exists an enormous application of this fundamental phenomenon of electromagnetics in determination of thickness of dielectrics from the measured reflection coefficients. Such applications are very important in the development of sensors where there is no other undestru...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Scattering from a Multi- Layered Surface with Lossy Inhomogeneous Dielectric Profiles for Remote Sensing of Snow
A multilayered backscattering model for a lossy medium has been presented in this paper. This multilayered model has been used to calculate the total surface reflection coefficients of a snow pack for both horizontal and vertical co-polarizations. The total surface reflection coefficients include contributions from both surface and volumetric backscattering. The backscattering coefficients calc...
متن کاملMulti-Layered Semantic Data Models
One of the basic terms in information engineering is data. In our approach, data item is defined as representation of an information atom stored in digital computers. Although an information atom can be considered as a subject-predicate-value triplet (Lassila, 1999), data is usually given only with its value representation. This fact can lead to definitions where data is just numbers, words or ...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Models for Remote Sensing of Layered Rough Media
Each region of the Earth’s crust can be morphologically modeled as a suitable layered structure, in which some amount of roughness is presented by every interface. Actually, propagation in stratified soil, sand cover of arid regions, forest canopies, urban buildings, snow blanket, snow cover ice, sea ice and glaciers, oil flood on sea surface, and other natural scenes can be modeled referring t...
متن کاملEffect of Snow Density Irregularities on Radar Backscatter from a Layered Dry Snow Pack
The contribution of electromagnetic wave scattering on density irregularities in the volume component of radar backscatter was analyzed for a thick snow pack containing internal hoar/ice layers. To evaluate the effect of this scattering, Density Deviation Factor (DDF), a statistical parameter, was introduced into the backscattering coefficient using the “slice” approach. DDF is proportional to ...
