More in detail, the design of such field manipulation devices is formulated within the transformation electromagnetics (TE) paradigm, and its solution is based on the exploitation of the Schwarz?Christoffel theorem in order to perform the spatial transformation between arbitrary doubly?connected ?virtual? and ?physical? regions. Some numerical results dealing with different settings of the transformation regions are shown to verify the effectiveness as well as the flexibility of the developed technique.} }
