Abstract :
The radiated field consists of forward radiation at an angle ¿ and backward radiation at ¿ ¿ ¿ reflected from the dielectric-air interface into an additional component of field at angle ¿. The total radiation contains a factor that simplifies into an expression recently obtained by more sophisticated methods, and which is here interpreted as the Huygens obliquity factor for the arrangement. A small correction to the expression is also obtained.
