The Encyclopedia of Image Processing presents a vast collection of well-written articles covering image processing fundamentals (e.g. color theory, fuzzy sets, cryptography) and applications (e.g. geographic information systems, traffic analysis, forgery detection). Image processing advances have enabled many applications in healthcare, avionics, robotics, natural resource discovery, and defense, which makes this text a key asset for both academic and industrial libraries and applied scientists and engineers working in any field that utilizes image processing. Written by experts from both academia and industry, it is structured using the ACM Computing Classification System (CCS) first published in 1988, but most recently updated in 2012.

Abstract

Image processing techniques involve the scattering characteristics of objects in order to extract the information. This entry focuses on the scattering response of complex mediums composed of metal and chiral medium-coated objects, and chiro-ferrites. Physical optics and image theory have been exploited. The tuning feature of the scatterer would be useful in stealth technology and other applications.

Keywords: Complex mediums; Electromagnetic waves; Scattering

INTRODUCTION
