  • Abstract
    Through the use of a transmission line analogy, a problem related to the reflection of electromagnetic energy from a periodic acoustic disturbance is solved. This solution agrees well with a numerical solution of a wave equation of the Mathieu form, which has been derived from a different model of the same problem. Subsequent experimental research has given results in good agreement with the theoretical solutions.
