A solution is given for the problem of the angular and spectral distributions of incoherent radiation emitted by relativistic charges that are driven by a strong, plane electromagnetic vacuum wave of elliptic polarization, using the asymptotic technique of Bleistein (1967) and Ursell (1972) to yield an approximation to the pertinent cross section that is uniformly valid for (1) arbitrary charged particle initial momentum, (2) arbitrary intensity and polarization of the incident strong wave, (3) arbitrary observational direction, and (4) over the entire range of the incident frequency's high harmonics. A reexamination of the main steps of the method's derivation shows that the method holds promise for the quantitative analysis of astrophysical radiation processes more general than the one considered.
