An Algorithm for Rough Surface Generation with Inhomogeneous Parameters

This paper is concerned with an algorithm for generating the inhomogeneous random rough surface (RRS) that can simulate the physical environments such as desert, vegetable field, sea surface and others, better than the homogeneous RRS. First, we discuss the statistics for two-dimensional (2D) RRSs w...
