Abstract
The electric and magnetic fields at the surface of a flat conducting earth in the near field of an oscillating line current are studied in this work. The equations for the amplitudes and phase angles developed by Law and Fannin (1961) were used for the numerical calculations. The source heights (h = 105 to 4 × 105 meters), the source frequencies (ƒ = 10−3 to 10 sec−1), and the earth conductivities (σ = 10−5 to 10 mho/m) considered are of interest in geophysics.
