A wave is polarised when all the vibrations are absorbed except those in one plane
Linear polarisation is the basic form and is usually termed Horizontal (HP) or Vertical Polarisation (VP) to describe the direction of the electric field in the plane at right angles to the direction of propagation
The locus or path described by the electric field vector of an electromagnetic wave, with respect to time See Polarisation summary
Direction of die electrical field vector of radiated radar energy with respect to a plane tangential to the earth (horizontal, vertical, left-hand circular, right-hand circular, elliptical, etc )
Polarised photons have their electric field vector in a specified orientation (eg Horizontal or Vertical)
{i} making polarized, giving two opposite tendencies; condition of having polariy; phenomenon in which light waves move in one plane (also polarization)
The phenomenon in which radio waves are restricted to certain directions of electrical and magnetic field variations, where these directions are perpendicular to the direction of wave travel By convention, the polarisation of a radio wave is defined by the direction of the electric field vector Four senses of polarisation are used in satellite transmissions: horizontal (X) linear polarisation, vertical (Y) linear polarisation, right-hand circular polarisation and left-hand circular polarisation
the phenomenon in which waves of light or other radiation are restricted in direction of vibration
In an ionised medium in the presence of a magnetic field, a radio wave is split into two circularly polarised components, each propagating independently In the ionosphere a radio wave is split by the earth's magnetic field into ordinary (o) and extra-ordinary (x) waves The partitioning of the wave energy between the two depends on the angle the wave makes with the magnetic field At low frequencies, the x-wave is heavily attenuated relative to the o-wave
The way the electrical field of a signal is organised The SIRIUS Satellite System broadcast signals with the same frequencies but with two different polarisation (the Horizontal and the Vertical) to make an efficient use of the available spectrum
