Description
Active, broad-band phased arrays can be used for remote sensing
in a randomly inhomogeneous environment where there is a lot of multiple
scattering (multipathing). I will explain in detail why this is so
and what signal processing methods one has to use not only to
neutralize noisy medium effects but, in some cases, to take advantage of
them with time-reversal techniques.
