Abstract:

Classical geometrical optics provides simple rules for the construction of electromagnetic fields. However the rules are imcomplete in that the directions of E and H are not completely determined. The usual rules can be derived from an asymptotic solution of Maxwells equations. This process also yields equations for the direction of E and H. These equations are shown to yield a very simple direction rule which completes the geometrical optics determination of the fields. Author
