Abstract

Based on the collation of the stochastic Monte Carlo technique and the iteration procedure of the solution of Bethe-Salpeter equation, it is shown that simulation of optical path of photons undergoing n-th scattering event is directly agreed with the n-th order ladder diagram calculation approach. In frame of this correspondence the Monte Carlo technique is generalised for simulation of coherent back-scattering and temporal intensity/field auto-correlation functions of optical radiation scattered within the randomly inhomogeneous turbid medium. The results of simulation demonstrate a good agreement with the diffusing wave theory and experimental results.
