Wave-oriented data-processing of fields scattered by one-dimensional aperiodically-ordered structures

Wave-oriented data-processing techniques, successfully applied in the past to the analysis of periodicity-induced wave phenomenologies, have been applied in the present paper to more general aperiodically ordered configurations based on two-letter substitution rules. For a representative canonical example, it has been shown that GWT configuration-spectrum phase-space processing is still capable of extracting the relevant phenomenology-matched footprints. Results also suggest that peculiar phase-space signatures can be obtained, in principle, via judicious exploitation of available geometrical and/or constitutive degrees of freedom, with interesting potential applications (e.g., radar countermeasures).
