Abstract : We present a formulation of Maxwell's equations in a conductive medium, in the time domain. In order to restrict the equations to the conductive half space, the solution in the air is represented by an integral boundary operator on the interface. The problem admits a variational formulation, allowing a finite element solution. A mathematical analysis is described for 2D and 3D models, and numerical results are presented.
