Abstract :
The current induced on a thin infinite coated wire above the ground when an electromagnetic plane wave is incident on it is calculated. The final result is presented in a form which exhibits clearly the various contributions to the total impedance of the wire-ground system. Numerical examples are given which demonstrate the dependence of the induced current on the conductivity of the ground, the thickness of the coating, and the polarization and direction of propagation of the incident wave.
