We present a novel approach to computing reflectors with a scattering surface in illumination optics. A scattering model governed by a Fredholm integral equation is derived. Solving this integral relation yields a virtual specular target distribution, which we insert into a Monge-Ampère least-squares numerical solver to get a scattering reflector that yields the desired illumination.
