Abstract
A solution is obtained for the problem of a plane electromagnetic wave at skew (oblique) incidence on a right-angled wedge one of whose faces is imperfectly conducting. An exact integral expression for the total field is derived, and the geometrical optics and edge diffracted fields are obtained. These are used to produce a uniform solution in the uniform asymptotic theory (UAT) format. Plots of the edge diffracted and total fields are presented to show the effect of the impedance of the wedge face.
