Electromagnetic waves. Ground wave refers to the propagation of radio waves parallel to and adjacent to the surface of the Earth, following the curvature of the Earth. This radiative ground wave is known as the Norton surface wave, or more properly the Norton ground wave, because ground waves in radio propagation are not confined to the surface.

Sometimes one is interested in a single specific wave, like how the Earth vibrated after the Murchison often, however, one needs to understand large set of possible waves; like all the ways that a drum skin can vibrate after being struck once with a drum stick, or all the possible radar echos one could get from an airplane that may be approaching.

Organized into 13 chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the general analysis for the electromagnetic response of a plane stratified medium comprising of any number of parallel homogeneous layers.

This text then explains the reflection of electromagnetic waves from planar stratified media. Direct waves 60) Space wave propagation with direct waves. Line-of-Sight (LOS) transmission 61) The curvature of Earth presents a horizon to space wave propagation.

The general concept of chirality, from a geometrical point of view, can be defined in a plane geometry (two dimensions): a structure is considered to be chiral in a plane if it cannot be brought into congruence with its mirror image, unless it is lifted from the plane (Le Guennec, a, b).
