Surface waves on a grounded dielectric slab covered by a resistive sheet

Surface wave propagation in a grounded dielectric slab covered with a resistive sheet is examined. Transcendental equations are derived for each polarization and are solved using iterative techniques. Attenuation and phase velocity are shown for a representative geometry. The results are applicable to both a grounded slab covered with a resistive sheet and an ungrounded slab covered on each side with a resistive sheet.<
