The acoustic field reflected from a random rough surface loses coherence with the incident field in the Kirchhoff approximation as kh cos θ increases, where k is the incident field wavenumber, h is the root mean square roughness height, and θ is the incidence angle. Thus, for fixed rough-surface properties and incidence angle, a reflected field at lower wavenumber should retain more coherence. Recent results suggest that the frequency-difference autoproduct formed from complex acoustic field amplitudes at two nearby frequencies can recover acoustic information at the difference of those frequencies even when the difference frequency is below the recorded field's bandwidth. Herein analytical, computational, and experimental results are presented for the extent to which the frequency-difference autoproduct recovers coherence from randomly rough-surface-scattered constituent fields that have lost coherence. The analytical results, developed from the Kirchhoff approximation and formal ensemble averaging over randomly rough surfaces with Gaussian height distributions and Gaussian correlation functions, indicate that the coherence of the rough-surface-reflected frequency-difference autoproduct depends on the surface correlation length and Δkh cos θ, where Δk is the difference of the autoproduct's constituent field wavenumbers. These results compare favorably with Monte Carlo simulations of rough surface scattering, and with laboratory experiments involving long surface correlation lengths where 1 ≤kh cos θ≤ 3.
