Metamaterial-enhanced arrays by innovative QCTO approaches

Quasi Conformal Transformation Optics (QCTO) is applied in innovative antenna array enhancement applications. The QCTO is implemented numerically. Examples provided include miniaturization of a linear array using isotropic metamaterial lens and transformation of an arbitrary shaped conformal array to a well known (for example circular) array. A full-wave electromagnetic simulation is used to validate the approach.
