The problem of the diffraction of a plane electromagnetic wave by a unidirectionally conducting half-plane is solved by transform techniques. A comparison is made with the results previously obtained by Karp.

The problem considered is that of a plane electromagnetic wave approaching from an arbitrary direction a perfectly conducting half-plane in an anisotropic plasma, characterized by a permittivity tensor. The system is such that the wave has a single magnetic field component, which is parallel both to the magneto-static field and the diffracting edge. The work is a simplification of previous work by Jull, involving the use of methods previously developed by the author.
