Abstract
Apparatus and method using a gas discharge device for shielding an object and/or person from electromagnetic (EM) radiation including radar, microwaves, X-rays, and/or gamma rays. The device comprises multiple gas discharge cells, each cell being within a gas-filled hollow shell. The gas is selected to absorb radiation particularly when the gas is in a discharge state. The shell may be composed of a radiation absorption material.
Claims7
An electromagnetic radiation shielding device for camouflaging an object and/or person from detection by electromagnetic radiation, said shielding device comprising a gas discharge device containing a multiplicity of gas filled hollow shells to absorb the radiation and prevent reflection of the radiation, each shell being located on a single substrate and being made of a material that absorbs radiation.
