Abstract

The approximate formulas are derived for the electromagnetic field generated by a horizontal electric dipole in the presence of a three-layered region. Especially, both the trapped surface wave and lateral wave are treated in detail. Further investigations on the far-field radiation in spherical coordinates and radiation patterns of a patch antenna with specific current distributions are carried out specifically.
