Electromagnetic waves propagation through the layered fractal structures

Autors: 
Nefedov Igor Sergeevich, Saratov State University
Abstract: 

Electromagnetic waves propagation through layered structures, which are constructed using the finite number N of fractal construction steps is studied. (These structures are called the pre-fractals of N-th level). We consider three layered pre-fractal kinds: Cantor dust, Cantor-like fractal obtained by convolution precedure (generalized Cantor dust) and fat fractal, described by Eykholt and Umberger. Transfer matrix method is exploited to solve the problem of reflection of electromagnetic wave which is obliquely incident onto the fractal structure. Angular reflection characteristics are analysed. The transfer mairix of the pre-fractal is constructed by means of recursive technique.
