The radio signals received from pulsars are pulses which are frequently broadened as a result of scattering in the interstellar medium. This broadening is examined theoretically using a diffraction theory of wave propagation in weakly irregular media. The theory is valid for all distances in the scattering medium, and particular attention is paid to the transition from the regime where single scattering predominates to that where all the radiation has been multiply-scattered. Typical pulse shapes are calculated and the results are compared with the theory of pulse broadening based on geometrical optics which represents the limiting case for extreme multiple scatter.
