Monostatic Radar time response for the electromagnetic scattering from a measured rough surface

This paper computes the monostatic Radar frequency and time responses of the electromagnetic field scattered by a 1D profile of a natural soil. The rough surface profile was measured with a profilometer which uses a stylus to measure the variations of the heights on the ground of a bare soil. Then, from this experimental surface, the electromagnetic response is calculated from the rigorous Method of Moments (MoM) for moderate incidence angles and by considering a Barker code as the input signal.
