Review text

The author employs multiple scattering techniques for deriving an equation for the mean wave which is propagating in a one-dimensional halfspace random medium with randomly distributed discrete scatterers with non-uniform background. A Dyson equation for the mean field is obtained. A two variable expansion/approximation technique is used for the zero order solution to the mean field. Detailed discussions stress the importance of the solution as it can be applied together with the solution for the mean Green's function in the correlation equation of the wave for deriving the transport equation in a discrete random medium.
