The diffraction of an inhomogeneous plane wave by an impedance wedge embedded in a lossy medium is analyzed. The rigorous integral representation for the field is asymptotically evaluated in the context of the uniform geometrical theory of diffraction (UTD) so that the asymptotic expressions obtained can be employed in a rag analysis of the scattering from more complex edge geometries located in a dissipative medium Surface wave excitations at the edge and their propagation along the wedge faces are discussed with particular emphasis on the effects of losses.
