Often, the resulting electromagnetic problems to be solve are not analytically derivable; therefore, numerical modeling must be employed and the Transmission Line Modeling (TLM) method constitutes a possible choice. After having greatly simplified the existing TLM techniques for the modeling of metamaterials, we propose in this paper to carry out a frequency study of cloaking structure.
