Representation of the Coherent Field in Terms of the Coherent Green's Function Associated with Scattering of Waves in a Random Medium

Development of the fundamental equation for the multiple scattering of electromagnetic waves by an ensemble of randomly distributed electrons is reviewed. From this expression integro-differential equations satisfied by the coherent electric field as well as the coherent dyadic Green's function are constructed. The scattered coherent field is then represented in terms of the coherent dyadic Green's function. In addition, analogous expressions are presented for the problem of scattering of electromagnetic waves from a fluctuating dielectric medium.
