Abstract :
In this letter, we introduce several new applications recently presented for engineering purpose. These designs are based on the concept of transformation electromagnetics (TE), including the theory of general TE and the method of qausi-conformal mapping. In particular, we focus on a series of illusion devices and microwave lens antennas, which are of great interest for the antennas and wireless propagation society. Realization methods of these TE-based designs are also studied and discussed.
