Radio wave propagation over a rough variable impedance boundary: Part II--Application of full-wave analysis

The full-wave analysis developed in Part I is applied to three classes of problems of propagation over nonuniform boundaries and the results are then compared with earlier solutions to these problems. The problems considered are: 1) the effects of rapid surface impedance variations on ground wave propagation; 2) the propagation over periodic structures; 3) the scattering by boundaries with random surface impedance and height functions. The full-wave solutions are shown to be consistent with the reciprocity relationships.
