Abstract
The velocity of transmission of a modulated microwave signal over a dielectric-covered plane conductor has been measured over a range of dielectric thicknesses for which the first order TM surface wave mode is known to propagate. An exact theoretical treatment of plane surface wave group velocity for both TM and TE surface wave modes of any order has been developed and calculations carried out for the first two orders. The experimentally determined signal velocities are in good agreement with the group velocities calculated for the first order TM mode. Effects of possible surface wave propagation on the accuracy of microwave distance-measuring methods are discussed.
