We apply multiple scattering equations to study the scattering of electromagnetic waves on a perfectly conducting plane surface with a random dense distribution of hemispherical bosses. We derive a multipole solution up to third order to analyze close range interactions between nearby bosses. Results show significant improvement of accuracy compared with the traditional dipole approximation solution. Absorption on a lossy embossed surface is obtained from the field solution for the perfectly conducting surface. The surface current and absorption enhancement factor are further computed numerically. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
