The radiation of an arbitrary source in a stratified system including anisotropic slabs is considered. Starting from an abstract‐operator formulation given by Bresler and Marcuvitz [1956, 1957], the transverse field is evaluated by using a Fourier‐integral representation. The Green's function is expressed through the evaluation of the source‐free solutions. The scattered field and the plane‐wave response are examined. An example is given concerning the field radiated in the presence of an anisotropic ferrite slab. The far field is evaluated through a saddle‐point integration.
