The localization of multiple scattering objects is performed while using scattered waves. An up-to-date approach: neural networks are used to estimate the corresponding locations. In the scattering phenomenon under investigation, we assume known incident plane waves, fully reflecting balls with known diameters and measurement data of the scattered wave on one fixed segment. The training data are constructed while using the simulation package μ-diff in Matlab. The structure of the neural networks, which are widely used for similar purposes, is further developed. A complex locally connected layer is the main compound of the proposed setup. With this and an appropriate preprocessing of the training data set, the number of parameters can be kept at a relatively low level. As a result, using a relatively large training data set, the unknown locations of the objects can be estimated effectively.

The electric and magnetic fields in the upper layer of a stratified flat conductor in the field of plane waves are studied. Expressions for the amplitude and phase of the components of the electric and magnetic fields are obtained and evaluated for various frequencies, angles of incidence, layer thicknesses, depths, and conductivities. The conductivities σ = 10−11 to 10−16 e.m.u. and the frequencies ƒ = 10−3 to 104 cycles/second considered are of interest in geophysics.

A theoretical study shows that passage of a seismic event through the water‐layer filter imposes amplitude characteristics on the resultant reverberating event which are independent of whether the event is a primary reflection or a multiple reflection. The phase characteristics of each order of event are, however, different. It is also shown that the reverberating sequence from a multiple reflection can be “whitened” by deconvolution but will still exhibit ringing. This phenomenon explains why some marine data, containing dominantly multiple reflections, are not amenable to deringing using standard deconvolution approaches. In addition, a quick method of obtaining the approximate reflection coefficient of the sea floor is derived.
