Abstract

The electromagnetic scattering from PEMC sphere placed in isotropic plasma medium is investigated theoretically. The analytical formulation of the problem is done in extended Mie theory. To secure the symmetry, all the electromagnetic fields i.e., incident and scattered are expanded in terms of spherical vector wave functions (SVWFs). The influence of plasma parameters i.e., plasma density and effective collision frequency on RCS is analyzed and presented graphically. It is concluded that, the plasma medium can be used to control the scattering amplitude and RCS. Further, the effects of plasma parameters on Co and Cross polarized components are also presented. The numerical results are compared with the published literature under special conditions and good agreement is found..
