The time-varying magnetic field does not exist inside a perfect conductor as the electric field is zero inside it. Thus it can be concluded that there are no time-varying electric and magnetic fields inside a perfect conductor, and there may be surface charge and surface current at the surface of a perfect conductor. If we consider medium 2 as the perfect conductor, as shown in Figure 2.17, we have £,, Ds, 4), and By identically zero, and the boundary condition equations become E,=0 Hence, we can conclude that, at a perfect conducting surface, the electric field is always normal to the surface (E, = 0), and the magnetic field is always tangential to the surface (B, = j1//, =0). The bound- ary conditions of diclectric-conductor interface are given below: Dielectric-conductor interface —_—— E D,, =P, Aah B, =0 2.9 WAVE EQUATION To derive the fundamental wave equation in any media, consider the following Maxwell's equations in differential form: VxH==+J (2.16) or 2.17) V-D=p, 2.18) Vv B=0 2.19) Consider a homogenous medium where ¢, #!, 6 are constants throughout the medium. Now, taking into account the curl of Eq. (2.16) gives av xD) or av xé) VxVxKA +Vxd +a(VxE) (+ D=e£ and J=08) or
