Closed-form harmonic contrast control with surface impedance coatings for conductive objects

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The problem of suppressing the scattering from conductive objects is addressed in terms of harmonic contrast reduction. A unique compact closed-form solution for a surface impedance Zs(m,kr) is found in a straightforward manner and without any approximation as a function of the harmonic index m (scattering mode to suppress) and of the frequency regime kr (product of wavenumber k and radius r of the cloaked system) at any frequency regime. In the quasi-static limit, mantle cloaking is obtained as a particular case for kr1 and m=0. In addition, beyond the quasi-static regime, impedance coatings for a selected dominant harmonic wave can be designed with proper dispersive behavior, resulting in improved reduction levels and harmonic filtering capability.
