      A coupling of finite element and boundary element methods is considered to solve a scalar free space transmission problem. The paper presents a sufficient and necessary condition to ensure the ellipticity of the bilinear form. This condition relates the minimal eigenvalue of the coefficient matrix in the bounded interior domain to the contraction constant of the shifted double layer integral operator reflecting the shape of the interface. Numerical examples are presented to support the theoretical results.
