Abstract :
Other researchers have employed complex image theory to rapidly evaluate spatial-domain Green´s functions in layered media. While workable in instances where the source lies within or at the interface of an unbounded region, the more general methodology given for a source embedded in a dielectric layer is incorrect. This paper explains the nature of the error and how it can be corrected
