Summary :

The backscattering of a spherical wave which is incident on a random medium with large-scale fluctuations is studied. The spatial correlation function of the backscattered field taking account of the effect of the multiple scattering is obtained theoretically in the closed form for an arbitrary fluctuation of the medium. The dependence of the spatial correlation function on the medium fluctuation is clearly shown. The multiple scattering effects on the backscattered field received by a point and finite apertures are also considered by using the spatial correlation functions, and it is shown that as the aperture size increases the results tend to those for the plane wave case.
