Skin Depth in Antenna and Wave Propogation Formulas

Skin Depth refers to the distance at which the amplitude of an electromagnetic wave decreases to approximately 1/e (about 37%) of its initial value as it propagates through a conductive material. And is denoted by δ. Skin Depth is usually measured using the Meter for Length. Note that the value of Skin Depth is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Skin Depth?

Skin Depth refers to the distance at which the amplitude of an electromagnetic wave decreases to approximately 1/e (about 37%) of its initial value as it propagates through a conductive material. Skin Depth is usually measured using the Meter for Length. Note that the value of Skin Depth is always positive.

Can the Skin Depth be negative?

No, the Skin Depth, measured in Length cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Skin Depth?

Skin Depth is usually measured using the Meter[m] for Length. Millimeter[m], Kilometer[m], Decimeter[m] are the few other units in which Skin Depth can be measured.
