The scattering of electromagnetic waves from rough surfaces has been actively studied for more than a century. This is mainly caused by its involvement in vast application areas, including remote sensing of the environment, medical imaging, sonar, optics, and astronomy [1-3]. In the last two decades, great advances have been made by incorporating multiple scattering effects into analytical approaches [4-6]. However, analytical models are valid only in some specific application ranges [7]. In order to gain a fundamental understanding of how light interacts with a wide range of rough surfaces, we choose to develop a rigorous numerical approach for light scattering from rough surfaces of general media. For this aim the full Maxwell equations were solved using surface integral equations combined with a boundary element method [8-9].
