title: Multiple scattering from gyrotropic bianisotropic cylinders of arbitrary cross sections using the modeling technique.
abstract: Based on the principle of the equivolumetric model, the multiple scattering from two-dimensional composite gyrotropic bianisotropic cylinders (GBC's) possessing a certain magnetic group of symmetry is studied by using the indirect modeling technique. At first, a mathematical formulation for the problem is carried out and its solution expressed in terms of a system of simultaneous linear equations of infinite order. The normal incident wave can be either TE(z) or TM(z) polarization. The linear equation system is then numerically solved by truncating the infinite series. Its numerical results are obtained and presented to characterize the co- and cross-polarized scattering by some typical composite GBC's. Especially, the multiple interactions among all the modeling cylinders, i.e., the host and guest cylinders as well as the guest and guest cylinders, are examined. Some phenomena of the interactions are found and discussed.
