This study analyzes wave propagation in random media using a novel path integral method. The approach accurately models coherence bandwidth and pulse broadening, even in strong scattering conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Wave propagation
  • Random media physics
  • Coherence theory

Background:

  • Transient wave propagation in random media is crucial for understanding signal behavior.
  • The two-frequency mutual coherence function measures coherence bandwidth but existing models have limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze transient wave propagation in forward scattering random media.
  • To develop a solution for the two-frequency mutual coherence function applicable to various media and scattering strengths.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized path integral technique with cumulant expansion.
  • Calculated the two-frequency mutual coherence function.
  • Analyzed temporal moments of pulsed waves.

Main Results:

Conclusions:

  • The developed method provides a robust framework for analyzing wave propagation in random media.
  • The findings are applicable to both continuous and discrete scattering media.
  • The study offers new insights into coherence bandwidth and pulse broadening phenomena.
