Abstract
► Gaussian beams constitute a complete set of basis functions for both transmission and reception of wave fields. ► The directivity of Gaussian beams makes them efficient building blocks for computing interactions between scatterers. ► The patterns of the transmitting and receiving beams can multiply to produce a higher directivity than is usually seen with Gaussian beams.
