A wave packet or pulse comprised of a distribution of single‐frequency lateral waves due to a vertical monopole is analyzed. The Fresnel‐integral terms in the Fourier transform of a general formula for E 2 z (ρ, z , ω), the vertical electric‐field component in air, are represented using confluent hypergeometric functions. A wave packet of lateral waves is calculated for a pulsed short bare monopole at the boundary between a pair of Earth's material regions and compared with experimental measurements.
