  • Abstract
    An efficient technique is developed to solve the problem of vertical antennas penetrating the interface between two contiguous dielectric half-spaces. The spatial Green´s functions for the vector and scalar potentials are obtained in simple, accurate, and rapidly convergent expressions using the complex image technique. It is shown that this technique is rapidly convergent for situations were the vertical source and field points are located in different media, such as the problem of a vertical antenna penetrating the interface between dielectric half-spaces.<>
