Let $` \Omega_{-} `$ be a unit sphere (the scatterer) and $`\Omega_{+} `$ the exterior domain. The boundary of $` \Omega_{-} `$ is denoted by $`\Gamma`$.
We consider an incident electromagnetic plane wave propagating in $`\Omega_{+}`$. The total wave field $` \mathbf{E}`$ verifies the following three-dimensional electromagnetic transmission-scattering problem:
with $` k_\pm`$ and $`\mathcal{Z}_\pm`$ the wavenumbers and the impedances associated with $` \Omega_\pm`$ respectively. The total electric field satisfied the transmission conditions on $`\Gamma`$. For the exterior problem to be well posed and physically admissible, we assume that the scattered field verifies the Silver-Muller radiation condition at infinity.
