Scattering of an Electromagnetic Surface Wave from a Hertzian Dipole by the Edge of an Impedance Wedge

摘要

In this paper, extensions of the results obtained in our previous paper devoted to the diffraction of waves from a Hertzian dipole (point source) located over an impedance wedge are presented. The surface waves components and the edge wave, produced by a surface wave from a point source coming to the edge, are discussed. The geometric optics laws for the surface waves reflected by and transmitted across the edge are also addressed.
