TRANSMISSION COEFFICIENTS FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC PLANE WAVE RADIATION INTO A CONDUCTING HALFSPACE

Abstract

The transmission of uniform plane waves from the air into a highly conductive medium such as sea-water is treated. Exact and approximate equations describing the transverse electric and transverse magnetic cases are derived and results interpreted. Graphs of the transmission coefficients versus the angle of incidence at specific frequencies are included. (Author)
