Exploiting Electromagnetic Cloaking to Design Compact Nanosatellite Systems

The aim of this contribution is showing how electromagnetic cloaking may be used to enhance the performances of the telecommunication systems in miniaturized satellites. In particular, with the aid of some relevant examples, it is shown that mantle cloaking allows minimizing the impact of the passive structures of the satellite itself on the antennas performances. Our findings enable the design of nanosatellite systems equipped with multi quasi-isotropic and multi-band antennas.
