Are there any procedures or charts for determining the required embedment depth for a pole structure with lateral loads?

I need to design a wood utility pole to support a dish antenna 18' above grade in a high wind zone.

Enercalc has a "Pole embedment in soil" calculation sheet. You can download a demo for free. You can't use it for work unless you buy it but it might serve as a sanity check.
