In this paper, we propose a method that represents a mathematical form of wave propagation by using the fact the refractive index determining wave propagation characteristic is a function of altitude. Proposed method uses Snell's law that expresses relationship between incident angle and refraction angle when incident wave passes medium having a different refractive index. We present the simulation results about wave propagation by setting the square of refractive index in the form of the polynomial for altitude and show that it is possible to estimate the coefficients of the polynomial through the angle information from vertical axis of multiple radar systems.

We propose an analysis method of an autostereoscopic display system with lenticular lens array using finite ray-tracing method that is verified by the geometrical optics. In the present work, we adopt the cylinder equation for the mathematical expression of the lenticular lens. For the calculation of the direction cosine of the transmitted ray, we first calculate the refracting point at bottom of the lens and the direction cosine of the incident ray that propagating through the lens by the Snell's law, and then apply to finite ray-tracing method. Finally, we obtain the simulation results for the intensity distribution of the ray at optimal viewing distance. From these results, we confirm the realization of 3D image that exists separately according to the viewing position at an optimal viewing distance.

Based on the dispersive feature of the dielectric function of noble metals and the wave vector conservation in physics, both the plasma effect and the complex refractive index, which are profoundly correlated to the complex dielectric function and permeability, have been studied and analyzed. The condition to induce a bulk or a surface plasma in the visible region will not be satisfied, and there will be one solution for the real and the imaginary parts of the refractive index, restricting it only to region I of the complex plane. The results given in this work will aid in understanding the properties of light transmission at the metal/dielectric interface as characterized by the law of refraction in nature.
