3. BOUNDARY CONDITIONS FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
in horrogenwus media, electromagnetic quantities vary smoothly and Continuously.. At a biundary
betwen dissimilar media. however, i 1 is possible for elceirornagnetic quantities to be discontinuous.
Continuitie,s and discontinuities in fields can be described mathematically by boundary conditions
andused to constrain solutionsforfieldsawayfromtheseboundaries..
Boundary conditiorN are derived by applying the integral form of Maxwell's uquatiorts to a small
region at an knell-
ace (limo media
