A two-step quasi-conformal transformation optics (QCTO) is exploited in order to match the antenna onto arbitrary curved surfaces. Some preliminary numerical results are shown, obtained by means of full-wave simulations of the MbD-synthesized conformal radiating systems, in order to assess the effectiveness of the developed synthesis methodology.} }
