The new model of HF vertically polarized grazing radio wave backward scattered by agitated sea surface is based on the proposed analogy between the sea surface wave and statistically irregular system for electromagnetic wave channellisation. By comparison with the well known model of Barrick [1, 2] utilizing the mathematical methods of solid state physics the proposed model is more simple and obvious and its assumptions are in better correlation with the detected physical phenomena.References
