PROPERTIES OF DIELECTRICS FROM REFLECTION COEFFICIENTS IN ONE DIMENSION

Abstract

Mathematicaltechniques are given for calculating dielectrics which give rise to prescribed reflection coefficients in certain problems of one dimensional electromagnetic propagation. The techniques are, in principle at least, exact. They are based on the use of an equation of the Gel'fand-Levitan type for the one-dimensional Schrodinger equation. Although no practical applications are given, it is hoped that this report will encourage the use of newer techniques in synthesis problems.
