Scattering suppression and wideband tunability of a flexible mantle cloak for finite-length conducting rods

A simple, thin, flexible mantle cloak for conducting rods based on scattering cancellation is analyzed, designed and experimentally realized. We show strong scattering suppression at all angles of incidence, for both far-field plane-wave and near-field Gaussian excitations. The required effective sh...
