Abstract
Expressions are derived for the far field that results when electromag netic radiation is incident upon an imperfectly conducting nonhomogene ous plane surface. In particular, these expressions include the second -order far field and thus allow consideration of surface wave effects. It is shown that the far field satisfies an integral equation and thi s is used to study the field resulting from a dipole that sits above a finite ground screen.
