The authors found an exact analytical solution of 
the problems on reflected and transmitted waves in interaction of 
a short electromagnetic pulse with a plasma layer of finite extension. 
The problem is solved assuming the linearity of material equations. 
Analytical expressions of Green functions are obtained for the corresponding 
problems that allow one to write solutions for the transmitted and 
reflected waves with any shape of an incident wave. The exact solutions 
depend substantially on the plasma density and layer extension, which 
makes it possible to use them in processing experimental results for 
extraction of the above-mentioned parameters.
