Write the expression for the electric field intensity <strong>of</strong> a linearly polarized wave travelingalong the z-direction with E 0x = 2 V/m and E 0y = 1 V/m. Assume a phase shiftδ = 0 between the field components. Find the tilt angle ψ.2. (a) Write an expression for the electric field <strong>of</strong> a right-handed circularly polarizedwave with a frequency <strong>of</strong> 300 MHz and an amplitude <strong>of</strong> 2 V/m, traveling alongthe z-direction.(b) Assume that this wave is incident normally on a perfectly conducting wall, <strong>of</strong>infinite extent, located at z = 0. Determine the electric field intensity <strong>of</strong> the reflectedwave. Determine the polarization type and rotation sense <strong>of</strong> the reflectedwave.(c) Repeat (b) with the perfectly conducting wall replaced by a dielectric half-spacewith μ r = 1,ε r = 4. Write expressions for the reflected and transmitted wavesand determine their polarization as well as rotation sense.3. An elliptically polarized wave is traveling along the z-direction with E 0x = 2 V/m,E 0y = 3 V/m, and a phase shift δ =−30 ◦ between the field components. (a) Writethe expression for the electric field intensity and determine the rotation sense <strong>of</strong> thepolarization ellipse. (b) Determine the axial ratio, ellipticity angle, and tilt angle. (c)Calculate the polarization ratio P. (d) Determine the rectangular components <strong>of</strong> thefield in terms <strong>of</strong> the tilt and ellipticity angles using (13.20) and show that it agrees
