Abstract
We consider wave scattering from a system of highly contrasting resonators with time-modulated material parameters. In this setting, the wave equation reduces to a system of coupled Helmholtz equations that models the scattering problem. We consider the one-dimensional setting. In order to understand the energy of the system, we prove a novel higher-order discrete, capacitance matrix approximation of the subwavelength resonant quasifrequencies. Further, we perform numerical experiments to support and illustrate our analytical results and show how periodically time-dependent material parameters affect the scattered wave field.

Keywords: time-modulated metamaterial, subwavelength resonator, scattering problem, scattering coefficient, energy conservation
