Abstract :
A geometrical theory of diffraction (GTD) interpretation of a uniform solution for the wedge given by Mohsen is given. The diffraction coefficients are equal to those given by Kouyoumjian and Pathak except that the Fresnel argument in the two solutions are different. This uniform geometrical theory of diffraction (UTD) result is compared with exact series expansions for a plane wave incident on a

wedge.
