The study is limited to numerical simulations at microwave frequencies, with potential challenges in experimental verification and scalability to optical frequencies.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs a Genetic Algorithm (GA) combined with the three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to design and optimize a cloaking device. The GA modulates the effective refractive index of the cloaking region to minimize diffraction of the scattered field distribution.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A cylindrical PEC material is selected as the object to be cloaked. The cloaking device is composed of binary high refractive index (nPLA = 1.55) and low refractive index (nair = 1) elementary cells.
3:55) and low refractive index (nair = 1) elementary cells.

3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: The study uses polylactide (PLA) dielectric material for the cloaking device, with dimensions and properties suitable for 3D printing and microwave frequency experiments.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The GA iteratively modifies the cloaking model to achieve the required inhomogeneous effective index modulation. The performance is evaluated by studying wave scattering magnetic field profiles and their reduction.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The study analyzes the magnetic field distributions and cross-sectional profiles at input and output monitors to assess cloaking performance.
