Abstract :
This work presents an MFIE-based prediction for vertically polarized radio waves propagating over a smoothly irregular terrain. The present theory is compared against its EFIE counterpart. It is shown that the MFIE-based technique yields accurate predictions with fewer basis functions than the EFIE one, specially for those regions where the line-of-sight is obstructed.
