Title :
Stratified Earth Effects on Wave Propagation - Frequency-Dependent Parameters

Abstract :
Stratified earth effects on wave propagation are investigated using a three-layer earth impedance with arbitrary earth resistivities, pemeabilities and permittivities. Significant differences are observed between the homogeneous earth and stratified earth cases. It appears to be necessary to account for the stratification of a real earth in the calculations of frequency-dependent parameters.
