Abstract :
We consider two model permittivity profiles for which we obtain joint analytic solutions for horizontally polarized electromagnetic waves (H-waves) and vertically polarized waves (V-waves): hyperbolic and square hyperbolic profiles. For the case of hyperbolic profile solutions for H- and V-waves are confluent hypergeometric functions with the integral second indices. For the case of the square hyperbolic profile we have confluent hypergeometric functions with non-integral second indices. The first profile can model the transition layer, and the second-region with the permittivity maximum. Solutions obtained can be used for testing of computer programs, for modelling of soil moisture distribution influence on the polarization properties of scattered microwave signals
