Abstract
In this paper, the problem of scattering and radiation in the presence of a material half-space is solved using the Transient spectral domain method (TSDM). The TSDM is a general theoretical approach for exact solution to the time-dependent sources radiation in the presence of stratified media. A source used is an electrically short magnetic dipole with impulse current distribution in time domain. It is located in air region in the vicinity of lossy half-space. The method requires the proper spatial Fourier transform for theoretical formulation of the problem. The new closed-form expressions is achieved in terms of spectral domain variable and time. Also a number of special cases are presented for verification of this procedure.
