Abstract :
In this paper, the fast inhomogenous plane wave algorithm has been successfully applied to solve the layered medium problems, by exploiting the similarity of the Green´s function encountered in a layered medium with its free space counterpart. More problems, such as the scattering problems from large scale buried objects, can be solved using this approach.
