Abstract :
The excitation of surface waves on reactive surfaces is accompanied by loss of power which is radiated directly from the region of the feed. Since a surface wave supported by a surface wave line is a (nonhomogeneous) plane wave, it cannot be excited as the only field of a current distribution of finite size and amplitude.
