Abstract
The impedance approximation has been widely used to model an earth surface such as ocean surface. In calculation of the dyadic Green's function for the impedance half plane, Sommerfeld integral and its partial derivatives are required. It is known that two far-field approximation of the Sommerfeld integral can be represented in terms of Legendre or Laguerre polynomials. Hence, a criterion is required to choose one of two far-field approximations for a given application, which can be expressed in a complex plane of the surface impedance. Also, we approximate the required partial derivatives of Sommerfeld integral and numerically verify the accuracy of the approximation.
