Remote sensing from and communications through vegetation and forests requires accurate modeling and understanding of electromagnetic wave propagation through those environments. Specifically, the coherent summation of the electromagnetic waves due to both the single scatter and multi-scatter effects must be evaluated. To accurately perform this evaluation, the Body of Revolution (BOR) Method of Moments must be extended to accept non-plane wave incidence fields on the Body of Revolution. This report performs an analytical derivation for non-plane wave incident fields, examines a Hertzian dipole field incident on a Body of Revolution, and validates the scattered field results with a commercial 3-D Method of Moments code.
