The mean dyadic Green's function for a two‐layer random medium with arbitrary three‐dimensional correlation functions has been obtained with the zeroth‐order solution to the Dyson equation by applying the nonlinear approximation. The propagation of the coherent wave in the random medium is similar to that in an anisotropic medium with different propagation constants for the characteristic transverse electric and transverse magnetic polarizations. In the limit of a laminar structure, two propagation constants for each polarization are found to exist.
