Abstract: In this paper we consider an inverse problem for the n-dimensional random Schr"{o}dinger equation (Deltaq+k2)u=0. We study the scattering of plane waves in the presence of a potential q which is assumed to be a Gaussian random function such that its covariance is described by a pseudodifferential operator. Our main result is as follows: given the backscattered far field, obtained from a single realization of the random potential q, we uniquely determine the principal symbol of the covariance operator of q. Especially, for n=3 this result is obtained for the full non-linear inverse backscattering problem. Finally, we present a physical scaling regime where the method is of practical importance.
