An unpolarized but focused beam of light (λ = 700 nm) is shined onto a 2-cm thick
piece of glass (n = 1.43) at an angle of 55o from normal. Calculate the relative
power (in dB, relative to the incident power) of the first 2 reflections (R1 & R2) and
the first 2 transmission (T1 & T2) as shown in figure.

Altogether, R1 = ½ (0.116 + 0) = 0.058 (┴ only)
R 1 = 10 log(0.058) = −12.4dB
T1 = ½ (0.782 + 1) = 0.891 (both pol.)
T1 = 10 log(0.891) = −0.50dB
B
R2 = ½ (0.090) = 0.045 (┴ only)
R 2 = 10 log(0.045) = −13.5dB
T2 = ½ (0.0105) = 0.0053 (┴ only)
T2 = 10 log(0.0053) = −22.8dB
Note: R1 + R2 + T1 + T2 = 0.058 + 0.891 + 0.045 + 0.0053 = 0.9993
accounts for almost all the input power already.

A submarine is trying to communicate with a helicopter above water as shown in
figure. Sea water is nonmagnetic and has a relative εr = 72, and σ = 4 S/m.
(a) What is the minimum angle of entrance φ (see figure) such that
communication with air is possible?
(b) There are 2 transmitters on board, one at HF (3 MHz) and the other at mmwave (120 GHz). Which transmitter would deliver a stronger signal to the
helicopter? Explain.

2. (f) If the submarine is at a depth of 100 m, what is the attenuation (in dB) of the
signal by the time it gets to the helicopter (assuming air is a lossless medium)?
(ignore the reflection “mismatch loss” for now.)
(f) A (dB) = −8.686αr = −8.686(6.88)(100) = −5976dB
This demonstrated the difficulty of underwater communications.
By the same token, it’s difficult to detect a submarine from air.
