Broadband exterior cloaking

Opt Express. 2009 Aug 17;17(17):14800-5. doi: 10.1364/oe.17.014800.

Abstract

It is shown how a recently proposed method of cloaking is effective over a broad range of frequencies. The method is based on three or more active devices. The devices, while not radiating significantly, create a "quiet zone" between the devices where the wave amplitude is small. Objects placed within this region are virtually invisible. The cloaking is demonstrated by simulations with a broadband incident pulse.
