Abstract
When the permittivity of a dielectric medium has a general power-law dependence 
in circularly cylindrical coordinates, the solution takes on a different form, depending on whether or not 
. This communication is addressed to the problem of showing that the two forms are, in fact, equivalent as 
. The equivalence is made evident through proper choice of the multiplying constant for the case
