TLDR
The normalized scattering coefficient is obtained whose probability density function is predicted to be universal in that it depends only on the loss of the cavity, and which applies to scattering measurements on any wave chaotic system.
Abstract
We consider the statistics of the scattering coefficient S of a chaotic microwave cavity coupled to a single port. We remove the nonuniversal effects of the coupling from the experimental S data using the radiation impedance obtained directly from the experiments. We thus obtain the normalized scattering coefficient whose probability density function (PDF) is predicted to be universal in that it depends only on the loss (quality factor) of the cavity. We compare experimental PDFs of the normalized scattering coefficients with those obtained from random matrix theory (RMT), and find excellent agreement. The results apply to scattering measurements on any wave chaotic system.

TL;DR: It is shown that optimal channel diversity can be achieved by physically shaping the propagation medium itself, using a reconfigurable metasurface placed inside a random environment to tune the disorder of their propagation environment.

Predicting the statistics of wave transport through chaotic cavities by the random coupling model: A review and recent progress

TL;DR: The random coupling model as discussed by the authors is a model that combines both deterministic and statistical phenomena to describe the coupling of radiation into and out of large enclosures through localized and/or distributed ports.

Classical wave experiments on chaotic scattering

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review recent research on the transport properties of classical waves through chaotic systems with special emphasis on microwaves and sound waves, and take absorption and imperfect coupling into account, concepts that were ignored in most previous theoretical investigations.

Statistical Prediction and Measurement of Induced Voltages on Components Within Complicated Enclosures: A Wave-Chaotic Approach

TL;DR: In this paper, induced voltages on electronic components housed inside complicated enclosures and subjected to high-frequency radiation are considered, and the field fluctuations within the enclosure are described in a statistical sense using random matrix theory.

Quantum signatures of chaos

Fritz Haake
TL;DR: The distinction between level clustering and level repulsion is one of the quantum analogues of the classical distinction between globally regular and predominantly chaotic motion (see Figs. 1, 2, 3) as mentioned in this paper.

Statistics of Impedance and Scattering Matrices in Chaotic Microwave Cavities: Single Channel Case

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the statistical properties of the impedance and scattering matrices of open electromagnetic cavities with several transmission lines or waveguides connected to the cavity, and they mainly discussed the single port case.
