An analytical solution of the scattering problem of a plane electromagnetic wave scattered by a dielectric spherical scatterer residing or partially buried in an infinite perfectly conducting ground plane is formulated in conjunction with the method of images. With imaging, the geometry is replaced by two touching or overlapping dielectric spheres in the absence of the ground plane, but with the given incident plane wave and its plane-wave image to satisfy the boundary conditions on the ground plane in the original problem. Numerical results are presented for the normalized scattering cross section at an arbitrary height from the ground plane, at any specific angle of incidence, and different relative dielectric constants.
