Abstract

We show existence and uniqueness of the outgoing solution for the Maxwell problem with an impedance boundary condition of Leontovitch type in a half-space. Due to the presence of surface waves guided by an infinite surface, the established radiation condition differs from the classical one when approaching the boundary of the half-space. This specific radiation pattern is derived from an accurate asymptotic analysis of the Green's dyad associated to this problem.
