Abstract

The formulas derived earlier for the frequency coherence of the field of a wave propagating in a layer with a linear profile of mean permittivity are used to simulate the mean intensity of a radio pulse reflected and scattered from a randomly inhomogeneous multiscale ionospheric layer. This intensity is shown to contain a wide pedestal due to backscattering by small-scale irregularities and a pulse with a smaller width determined by broadening of the pulse during propagation in a medium with large-scale irregularities.
