Abstract
Investigations of the phase velocities of TE mode surface waves are described. The surface waves were excited over a sand-covered metal plane and the phase velocities of the first three TE modes determined as a function of the sand depth, at a frequency of about 9300 Mc/sec. A phase comparison system was used for the measurements. The simultaneous existence of two modes with different velocities, predicted theoretically for certain sand depths, was found experimentally.The variation of relative surface wave power carried above the dielectric layer with thickness of the layer is also discussed.Keywords
