Abstract :
This paper addresses both uniform and stratified medium problems. It provides an extension of 1D-MAP methodology which deals only with homogeneous plane waves to include inhomogeneous plane waves. Inhomogeneous waves do not share the same geometrical simplicity as that of the homogeneous plane waves. As a result, directly extending the 1D-MAP to include inhomogeneous plane waves is numerically very inefficient.
