Abstract
The extinction efficiency factor and the angular distribution of radiation of polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) droplets have been calculated by the discrete-dipole approximation (DDA) and compared with the data obtained by the commonly used Rayleigh-Gans approximation (RGA) and by the anomalous-diffraction approximation (ADA). The errors of calculations by the above-mentioned methods for droplets with homogeneous and droplets with radial director configuration are considered.
