IT is well known1 that the velocity of propagation of an electromagnetic signal is governed by the boundary conditions imposed by the guiding structure, the type of modulation and the characteristics of the detector. It is possible that the velocity associated with an unmodulated transverse electromagnetic wave in free space may not be unique.
