This Engineering Research Equipment Grant is for the acquisition of             two major instruments, an HP8510B vector network analyzer system to be          used for microwave and millimeter wave experiments, and a MicroVax              3500 computer system to be used for numerical studies of microwave and          millimeter wave scattering.  The PIs have been conducting extensive             research supported by NSF in three major areas:  imaging in random              inhomogeneous media; microwave remote-sensing of geophysical media;             and subsurface object scattering and detection.  All of these areas             require studies of the interactions of waves with random or                     inhomogeneous natural media.  Major objectives are the development of           basic information on imaging, remote-sensing, and detection in the              geophysical media including  hydrometeors, fog, hail, turbulent air,            vegetation, soil, rock, snow, and ice where multiple scattering and             scattering by complex objects are particularly important.  The efforts          have been directed by extensive theoretical investigations, numerical           studies, and controlled experiments including optical and microwave             scattering measurements.  The proposed microwave and millimeter wave            scattering systems should materially advance their ability to conduct           the experiments and numerical studies and to develop theoretical                models of wave interactions with geophysical media.  It will also               enhance their current and future research on imaging, remote-sensing,           and detection.
