Abstrakt: Scattering from a perfect electric conducting cylinder with random radius buried below a half space dielectric homogenous interface is studied. The cylindrical wave scattered by cylinder is expanded in terms of plane wave spectrum. Small perturbation method is used to study the interaction of each plane wave with the interface. The zeroth order term yields solution for a flat interface, whereas scattering from a rough surface is given by first-order term. Results are obtained for both TM and TE polarizations. Analytical expressions of the average scattered field are obtained and verified using numerical evaluation. Different scattering scenarios are simulated by varying the distribution of the radius. It is observed that average scattering cross section of an ensemble with normal/uniform distribution is almost equal to that of a cylinder with mean radius. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
