Abstract
The wave tilt of a transverse electric (TE) electromagnetic wave over a linearly inhomogeneous lossy layer overlying a homogeneous half-space is studied. Two approaches are used: an exact formulation using solutions of Airy's equation and an approximate numerical solution using a large number of homogeneous layers with a linearly increasing dielectric constant. The numerical results of both solutions are practically identical as long as the thickness of the layers in the approximate model are somewhat smaller than a quarter-wavelength.
