Abstract :
In this presentation the conventional skin depth is compared with a modified skin depth that considers a finite thickness conductor, and with an effective skin depth that also considers wave reflection at the backside of the conductor. The comparison yields recommended thickness ranges over which each version of skin depth is accurate
