I did one for a company doing exactly that at various frequencies between 120 to 450Mhz. Sorry, but I don't have a copy of the report. For convenience, we use ham frequencies for most of the testing. What we found is that once a signal is reflected, the reflected signals polarization is fairly random. There are few flat plate reflectors in both man made and natural objects. The measured result was a mess of varying polarization angles. You can expect similar results for HF signals reflected off the ionosphere with the added complexity of Faraday rotation. However, it is beneficial to build polarization insensitive antennas. In a common dipole, there's very little loss for polarization mismatch until you get very close to perpendicular. There, the signal drops off quickly. Filling in this hole is considered to be a good thing. You can get a crude idea of how it works using an Adcock DF antenna array, or just two cross polarized dipoles. Since you're not building a direction finder, the crossed dipoles are easier to explain. Just setup two perpendicular dipoles with the center feeds fairly close together. Connect two well matched receivers to the two antennas. Connect the IF or audio outputs to the vertical and horizontal of an oscilloscope. The resulting Lissajous pattern will give you a rough idea of the polarization (assuming the signal arrives from above). Pick a strong steady signal like WWV. You'll probably see the polarization change erratically when the skip is in. (Last time I did this was 20 years ago). You'll also see that vertical and horizontal parts of the Lissajous display to wander around in amplitude fairly independently. This is the main advantage of a polarization independent antenna. The antenna will automagically select the strongest polarization to feed the receiver. There are circularly polarized HF antennas, but I'm too lazy to Google for them tonite. -- Jeff Liebermann 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 |

I have not seen the like printed any where soto me it is good stuff. When I model a polarization independent antenna the individual gains confuse me as each of the individual gains are some what 3 db down from the "total" gain. In other words "total" is not the addition of all the polarizations gains. I find it very difficult to get my mind wrapped around that fact. On the surface it would suggest that competition types would benefit from a polarization independent antenna. |

Hi Jimmie, EZNEC, for one, reports antenna "gain"/directivity (re dBi) for each polarization, azimuthum or elevation; or their sum as a total field for a 3D model. When two antennas (one receive, one transmit) are cross polarized, the gain between them can vanish to zero. In a real application this zero is something larger, but still small like 30dB down compared to two antennas employing the same polarization. This last is observed in line of sight transmissions of VHF and above (try hitting your favorite 2M repeater with the wrong antenna polarization orientation). It is not so common at HF as long paths (aka skip) can blur the polarization (as can nearby reflectors for any frequency) causing intermittant fading. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

Initially I was basing efficiency on all forces being accounted for with a higher gain resulting. In fact this aproach to design provides diversity of polarizations instead of linear thus linear seamed to supply top gains. The full wave length aproach gives the option of dual polarity or even all forms. The penalty is usually in the 1db range where as the multiple polarity may drop down a bit on gain but makes use of signals that a linear design cannot hear as well as zero side lobes and good front to rear figures. So without knowing what polarizations one has to deal with a reasonable choice is hard to come by. On top of these questions one has to look t what "gain" really represents since cross polarization can be reduced to just noise with the rest of the db gain value representing quality signal. Thus it is difficult to quantify gain when the real advantage comes about on weak signals that others cannot hear. In other words gain itself is not important unless it is a measure of discernabilitity or quality above noise or none matching polarities. Two antenna designs come to mind 1 is the two element array that can supply 2 polarities, horizontal and one direction circular and 2 the helical that can accept all that is thrown at it with a prime gain around 13 db and 10 db for the others. Thus if polarizations are random with weather fluctuations in city or wooded area it would seam reasonable to discard linear forms in favour of helicals. To sum up, all the above has placed me on a zero level as to what antenna efficiency really means which to the reader must now be obvious, as one does not know what variables should be weighted and by how much., |

wrote: A different perspective on polarization loss? Different? How? All pretty standard stuff. As for different literal perspectives of polarization, I am sitting here with two sets of 3D glasses for "Avatar" (just got back from the IMAX version) and these two pair of glasses are very different from my experience with Polaroid lenses of days gone by. And they are very different from each other for the same movie. The Real3D glasses at IMAX didn't work as normally worn, I still saw a double image; but viewing the movie through the lenses backwards (ear pieces going forward) rendered the IMAX 3D as 2D. Now, when I sit here at the console and view the display (flat screen) through the IMAX lenses, I can dim the display by rotating the pair. One eye piece goes black at 45 degrees rotation, and the other eye piece goes black at -45 degrees rotation. Flip them to look through them backwards, and the same effect is observed. When I take the Real3D pair and rotate them, only a slight shift in hue: yellow tint in both lenses at 45 degrees rotation, and a blue tint at -45 degrees rotation. When I flip them to look through them backwards, I encounter a slight brightening for both lenses at 45 degrees rotation and a complete blocking for both lenses at -45 degrees. I am familiar with display technology employing LCDs with double polarization to increase contrast, and I could easily expect this from the lenses of these two pairs of 3D glasses. Without having gone further into researching it, I have a hunch that I am encountering circular polarization here. A little digging will tell. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

, Art Unwin writes Has there ever been a study that shows the relative consistency of received signal polarity to see if it would be advantageous for multi polarity receive antennas? When I listen to the local 2m beacon ( horizontal polarisation) which is north of me ,I get a strong reflection from something to the south that turns the polarisation vertical. I noticed that while testing an antenna in the garden. Brian GM4DIJ -- Brian Howie |

Whether or not you account for all forces will not have any effect on gain. :/ This is another case of the hopeful free lunch.. But the cupboard was bare. :( The radiation from the vertical and horizontal polarizations added together will never end up being more than you started with. And an antenna that is a mix of both will be a compromise if the other antenna is purely one way or the other assuming no reflections, etc skewing the path. No free lunch.. :( |

I use Minninec not NEC programs I really do not want to fight with you or anybody on this even tho many want to. I made the post as a point of interest and to share only. To show what polarities it was sensitive to even tho many want to fight regardless of what I post. The majority on this newsgroup are not able or interested in modeling which is why I posted the results, otherwise the intent would be lost on them. Ever since I declared that a static field in equilibrium, when made dynamic, is applicable to Maxwells equation for radiation it seems like everybody wants a piece of me even tho they are completely ignorant of the physics involved. The model provided is complete evidence of this fact which as yet nobody has been able to refute prefering to personaly harm the messenger. Maxwell gained fame just by adding /dt to an equation which made it dynamic, and apparently many on this newsgroup want to deny him of his achievement because the importance is not illustrated in any physic books. Frankly, if you can't live with history you should be challenging computer programing that utelise 1/2 wavelength radiators where the energy lost by the components is ignored as is the EXACT length of a 1/2 wavelength which varies with every cycle! Use of Maxwells equations are for radiator designs that are sensitive to ALL polarities directed at it for maximum efficiency, and not for those designs that it ignores or cannot handle. Art KB9MZ |

Ever since I declared that a static field in equilibrium, when made dynamic, is applicable to Maxwells equation for radiation it seems like everybody wants a piece of me even tho they are completely ignorant of the physics involved. The model provided is complete evidence of this fact which as yet nobody has been able to refute prefering to personaly harm the messenger. Maxwell gained fame just by adding /dt to an equation which made it dynamic, and apparently many on this newsgroup want to deny him of his achievement because the importance is not illustrated in any physic books. Frankly, if you can't live with history you should be challenging computer programing that utelise 1/2 wavelength radiators where the energy lost by the components is ignored as is the EXACT length of a 1/2 wavelength which varies with every cycle! Use of Maxwells equations are for radiator designs that are sensitive to ALL polarities directed at it for maximum efficiency, and not for those designs that it ignores or cannot handle. Art KB9MZ the only thing that should be ignored on here is you. |

The crux of the matter is under the equations of Maxwell optimiser programs do not provide the planar form as the best radiator. I understand that Roy now has an optimiser program for sale and I fully expect for it to follow the same pattern as well as prove my point on the circular wound antenna as apparently he supplies more than enough segments assuming the computer has the power to use them. However a look at the larger picture the same particulars provided state that one can manipulate the elements to occupy a small volume as long as the resonance and equilibrium restrictions are held to. I see that as the real prize that will come from my workif one had the equipment to do the optimization. Ofcourse if Roy's program still provide the yagi as the optimizer result then there is a definate conflict with other computer programs that use Maxwells equations. Looking back at the idea that waves are the carrier of communication it leaves us with the silly propersition that a Faraday cage perforations must be less in size to that of the incoming wave! Thus for a cage for use on the top band can live with openings that are a bit smaller than 180 metres! Now some text books have dropped the size opening to approx 1/10 of a WL which is still way to large to enclose the eddy current rotation.Einstein failed to prove his theorem and was forced to invent quantum mechanics which provided the answer of particles that he anticipated and now with the above standard physics figures supplies the same result. So it is up to the ham himself to decide whether it is worthwhile to have an antenna sensitive to all signals that are thrown at it, where it operates in a smaller volume than the yagi or stay with one more pleasing on the eye. I personally do not have the equipment to pursue what appears to be smaller antennas than presently used all the way down to point radiation. What hams have to recognise now is that the much vaunted antenna programs do not consider the yagi as an optimized array and to decide whether to ditch the programs or pursue what the programs based on Maxwell provide to its limits.

I am not party to how these programs were generated or how closely they adhere to maxwells equations.If they provide results that are different then that seller has to answer for it. Obviously clever people such as yourself will guide hams on the correct path to follow as well as to explain why Maxwells equations do not favor the yagi. Hopefully you will supply technical details and not just wordy fluff. I would point out that Tom provided a planar form, which you copied, for a different frequency to the one that I supplied which provided f/ b/r that greatly exceeded his design. If your idea is to be a pied piper to lead ham radio away from examining change then such tactics will certainly do the job. But first to justify your dreams as a leader you have to provide reasons that make optimizer programs suspect. A point in your favor would be that Roy declares that his optimizer do NOT supply the results that others do so that experts such as you can direct your talents where they would be more profitable. Since you are not wired the same as I am I will not respond to you any more so that guilt by association may not be applied. But I will mention to all that you are in total disagreement with the association of a static field being made dynamic which is a staple in physics around which this discussion rests upon. Nobody, nobody, has come forward to provide academic reasons why this staple should not be held to or why people such as you should trash pursuit of that what I disclose. What I have provided is that computer programs side lines yagis in favor of arrays where elements are not parallel but all are resonant and where the array as a whole is in equilibrium. They do this because Maxwell supports the physics staple I proffer which you declare as NOT being correct but without supporting data other than you said so. |
