摘要
Electromagnetic wave scattering from multilayers consisting of two two-layer Caussian rough surfaces with lossless media is investigated in the Kirchhoff approximation （KA）, with consideration of the shadowing effects. The tapered incident wave is introduced into the classic KA, and the bistatic scattering coefficient is redetermined. The advantage of this method is that it is faster in computation than the exact numerical methods. The numerical results show that the bistatic scattering coefficient calculated in the KA is in good agreement with that obtained by using the method of moment （MOM） over a most angular range, which indicates the validity of the KA proposed in our paper. Finally, the effects of the relative permittivity, the root-mean-square （RMS） height, the correlative length, and the average height between the two interfaces on the bistatic scattering coefficient are discussed in detail.
