Code 12.1: Smooth Surface Emissivity

Code Name: Emissivity_SmoothSurf.m

Description: Code computes emissivity of a dielectric medium viewed from air (with ε₁ = 1) at angle Θ₁ (Fig. 6-17).

Input Variables:

ε = ε^' - jε^'':	Real part of dielectric constant of emitting medium (unitless)
Θ₁:	Incidence angle in medium 1 (degrees)

Output Products:

e^h(Θ₁) and e^v(Θ₁):

Emissivity at Θ₁ for v- and h-polarization
