Interference of randomly scattered classical waves naturally leads to familiar speckle patterns, where the wave intensity follows an exponential distribution while the wave field itself is described by a circularly symmetric complex normal…
When waves propagate through a strongly scattering medium the energy is transferred to the incoherent wave part by scattering. The wave intensity then forms a random speckle pattern seemingly without much useful information. However, a…
