A 4 MHz time-harmonic uniform TEM plane wave that is traveling through a lossy nonmagnetic medium has an amplitude that attenuates by 20% for each meter of propagation.
The electric field of the wave leads the magnetic field by 35°. Assume that there is no polarization loss in this medium. Hint: alpha is NOT equal to .2 Np/m.
a. Assume that this medium resides in the exact (quasi-conductive) domain for alpha , beta, n (intrensic impedance)
Determine the complex propagation constant.
b. Determine the relative permittivity of the medium, epsilon?
c. Determine the conductivity of the medium, sigma.
