Abstract :
The basic theory is developed for the use of lateral electromagnetic waves to detect dielectric spheres submerged in fresh or salt water or human flesh. The source and receiver are, respectively, center-driven and center-loaded eccentrically insulated dipoles. A numerical example is computed to determine the magnitude of the scattered field that must be detected
