PARAMETRIC STUDY ON THE SCATTERING CHARACTERISTICS OF 2 IMPEDANCE CYLINDERS ECCENTRICALLY COATED WITH FARADAY CHIRAL MATERIALS

The technique of separation variables combined with boundary-value met hod and additional theorem for the cylindrical wave functions is emplo yed to examine the multiple scattering from two infinitely long, paral lel, non-overlapping circular impedance cylinders eccentrically coated with Faraday chiral media at normal incidence. Parametric study is pe rformed to show the effects of constitutive and geometrical variables as well as the incident wave direction on the scattering cross section and other scattering characteristics of two composite eccentrical cyl inders. It is believed that the present study provides us some insight into the physical properties of Faraday chiral coatings.
