T_matrix_for_Multiple_Cylinders.m: The T-matrix of a single multilayer cylinder is calculated by generalized reflection coefficient method, then a T-matrix equation is formed and solved for the multiple scattering problem. This method can also be used for approximately estimating the RCS of long and thin 3-D cylinders.

translation_matrix.m: Translation matrix from Hankel to Bessel function

translation_matrix2.m: Translation matrix from Hankel to Hankel function

Notice: Large number of Mie series is needed for larger-scale problem. T-matrix method is suitable for many compact (~10 wavelength) scatterers.
