A step-function approximation is introduced to determine the coefficients of the Legendre polynomial expansion of the highly-forward-scattering phase-functions from experiments. It is shown that by using this approximation with a limited number of angular intensity data, as many as 10 coefficients can be recovered within a 10% error bound. The errors in the first two coefficients determined by employing a delta-phase-function approximation are at least an order of magnitude greater than that for the step-function approximation. The effect of the recovered phase-function on the accuracy of radiative transfer calculations is also discussed.
