Several approximations to the attenuation coefficient caused by double knife‐edge diffraction are given in terms of the single knife‐edge attenuation coefficient. These approximations are evaluated for several typical double knife‐edge paths and compared with the theoretical value in order to determine the best approximation in the different regions of interest.
