4 Cloaking and Total Scattering Cross-Section Reduction (I-III) An ideal cloak is a device capable of: minimizing the reflected field from the object; minimizing the scattered field from the object; minimizing the absorbed field in the object. The dream is: broadband transparency, no scattering, no shade for any polarization, direction, object! 4

5 Cloaking and Total Scattering Cross-Section Reduction (II-III) The right figure of merit is the minimization of the Total Scattering Cross-Section (TSCS). The TSCS is given by the sum of the Scattering Cross- Section (SCS) and the Absorption Cross-Section (ACS) (different from Stealth Technology) Both SCS and ACS have to be minimized. 5

6 Cloaking and Total Scattering Cross-Section Reduction (III-III) Mie theory can describe the scattering phenomena for typical geometries, in order to have an expression for the SCS. Applying the Optical Theorem ACS can be calculated from the SCS. 6
