Expanded from a 1977 technical report, which has since been used by graduate students in the Satellite Communications Group at Virginia Tech, and by engineers in industry. Introduces the mathematical representations of polarization and the formation of the problem of rain-induced depolarization waves along an earth- space communication link. Assumes the reader to be generally familiar with electromagnetics, but does not require a complete understanding of electromagnetic theory (the solution to Maxwell's equations, for example, is explained from scratch).
