Ray series for electromagnetic waves in heterogeneous bianisotropic dielectric media

摘要

We consider smoothly heterogeneous generally bianisotropic dielectric media with linear constitutive relations in the Boys-Post representation without spatial dispersion. We propose the high-frequency asymptotic ray series in terms of the magnetic vector potential in the frequency domain. We derive the Hamilton's equations of rays, and solve the transport equations for the zero-order and higher-order vectorial amplitudes.
