Explore how geometrical optics helps analyze wave propagation in complex media. Learn practical methods to extend theory to inhomogeneous environments.
Geometrical optics provides a framework for understanding how electromagnetic waves travel through media where the index of refraction varies. This edition focuses on the scalar two-dimensional wave equation and shows how to derive a transport equation for the field amplitude, then couple it with ray paths to enable numerical solutions.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the derivation of a differential equation that is inversely proportional to the square of the geometrical optics field intensity and can be numerically integrated alongside the standard ray and phase equations, thus enabling the complete calculation of wave solutions in the optical limit. The book is of interest to those concerned with theoretical investigation of electromagnetic wave propagation in a general inhomogeneous medium and/or the extension of the geometrical optics theory to caustics and shadow regions. The differential equation and related theory could also prove to be of value to the broader scientific community.
