Abstract
An analytical solution of one dimensional mild slope equation is derived by use of the WKB method, which has a form similar to Porter's solution(2003). The present solution is so general in the sense of application that it is comparable to the corresponding numerical solutions. In the derivation we also presented the solution of refraction equation in terms of surface displacement. Some numerical results of the present solution by use of Bremmer's method are presented which agree with existing numerical solutions.
