electromagnetic scattering

The problem of scattering of electromagnetic (EM) waves by many small impedance particles (bodies), embedded in a homogeneous medium is studied in order to create medium with desired permeability. Physical properties of the particles are described by their boundary impedance. The limiting integral equation is obtained for the effective EM field in the limiting medium, at a → 0 , where a is the characteristic size of a particle and M ( ) a is the number of particles. The proposed approach allows one to create a medium with a desirable spatially inhomogeneous permeability.

The problem of scattering of the electromagnetic (EM) waves by many small impedance bodies (particles), embedded in a homogeneous medium is studied. Physical properties of the particles are described by their boundary impedance. The boundary integral equation is obtained for the effective EM field in the limiting medium for the case if radius of particles tends to zero and number of particles tends to infinity by suitable rate. The medium, created by the embedding of the small particles, has new physical properties.
