This paper investigates the cross-frequency structure of background clutter induced by random dispersive media in single-snapshot FDA-MIMO-GPR. Representative media are modeled by the Cole--Cole formulation to relate dispersive constitutive behavior to the reference propagation environment and observation-domain statistics. A normalized incremental contrast function is introduced under a reference-medium framework, and a single-snapshot background-response expression with first-order propagation-kernel feedback is derived. Based on this expression, a cross-frequency coupling strength of the leading-order background covariance is defined. Numerical results show that, in weakly dispersive scenes, the proposed analysis remains consistent across constitutive mapping, the zeroth-order propagation skeleton, first-order distorted-Born truncation, propagation-kernel feedback, and single-channel response closure. The proposed metric distinguishes uncoupled and explicitly coupled constructions, remains stable under pure energy scaling, responds clearly to correlation length and relaxation-location parameters, and corresponds directly to the error of the frequency block-diagonal approximation. Additional experiments show that the resulting cross-frequency structure affects whitening and principal-subspace extraction. In scenes with pronounced relaxation, abrupt breakdown under strong perturbations and high-error plateaus indicate that the present theory is mainly applicable within the validity range of first-order feedback.
