A small reconfigurable patch antenna is proposed to achieve polarization diversity for digital multimedia broadcasting systems at 2.6 GHz. To obtain polarization diversity, a pair of on-slit PIN diodes is inserted in each diagonal of a cross-shaped patch. Thus, four PIN-diodes on these slits are utilized to change the connection of the slits and thus achieve polarization. Bias circuits for the diodes are allocated in the cutting corner of the cross-shaped patch to minimize the antenna size. The antenna produces left-hand circular polarization, right-hand circular polarization, or linear polarization, depending on the PIN-diode status. Analysis of circular polarization operation is explicated. Measurements show a gain of about 1.5 dB, a cross polarization of about -20 dB, and an axial ratio of about 2.5 dB.

The interference between closely placed co-coverage satellites was analyzed. In general, a satellite network may use different orthogonal polarizations and frequencies to increase the throughput of a satellite. However, when orthogonal linear polarization (horizontal polarization and vertical polarization) or orthogonal circular polarization (left-handed circular polarization and right-handed circular polarization) is used, the signal from one polarization sense to another may be coupled, resulting in cross-polarization interference. This signal-coupling arises due to the finite value of the cross-polarization discrimination of the earth station. In this study, field equations were used to analyze the interference between adjacent satellites using co-frequency. The level of interference was compared to that when two adjacent satellites used the same polarization. The simulation results show that the interference mainly depends on the off-axis co-polar pattern and the cross-polar pattern of the earth station antenna.

In this paper, we propose dual-polarization technique which double the system capacity without increasing any other bandwidth. In theory, dual-polarization technique can double system capacity by using an orthogonal electromagnetic wave. However, cross-polarization interference and multipath interference degrade system performance in practice. To cope with this problem, we propose Cross Polarization Interference Canceller(XPIC) for ITS/DSRC system which can mitigate the XPI as well as multipath propagation interference. We also analyze and discuss its performance with relevant computer simulation results.

In this paper. to eliminate a cross-polarization interference caused by co-channel dual polarization technique of digital radio relay system(DRRS), a cross-polarization interference canceller(XPIC) is analysed in terms of the analytical modeling, digital design, and its performance. By virtue of a 13-tap adaptive equalizer and XPIC, about 23dB in XPIC improvement can be obtained by computer simulation. To show the operation of designed XPIC, some simulated results are reviewed under 64-QAM DRRS with co -channel dual Polarization.

In this paper, to counteract a cross-polarization interference caused by co-channel dual polarization technique of digital radio relay system(DRRS), we analyze the theoretical model and digital design of cross-polarization interference canceller(XPIC). In addition a complex adaptive time domain equalizer(ATDE) is designed using a finite impulse response filter, and the structure of XPIC and its control method are also illustrated including ATDE. Our computer simulation shows that about 25 dB signature and more than 23 dB XPIC improvement factor can be obtained with XPIC and ATDE. In order to verify the operation of designed XPIC, we review the simulated results in view of tap number, algorithm convergence, system signature, and XPlC improvement factor in connection with 64-QAM DRRS with co-channel dual polarization.

This paper described a design for microstrip antenna with EMC cross dipole for circular polarization. To realize the wide bandwidth and circular polarization, the elertromagnetic-coupled cross dipole are used. The calculated axial ratio is about 0.1 dB in the main bean direction at 12 GHz and the circular polarization is realized.

In this paper, we design and fabricate a dual liner polarization sinuous antenna with improved cross polarization isolation (XPI). The proposed antenna is composed of four arm radiators for generating dual linear polarization and excited by wideband microstrip balun with Klopfenstein taper structure. Also, two-step cylindrical cavity structure is applied to reduce back radiation. Honeycomb-typed absorbing material is inserted into the cavity to reduce performance degradation by reflected wave. To enhance cross polarization isolation in low frequency band, resistors are adapted between outer arm and the rim of cavity. We confirmed that the fabricated antenna can be applied for polarization measurement due to improved XPI in the low band.

We investigated the effects of the CSRR-metamaterial on microstrip comb-line array antennas. Microstrip comb-line array antennas was designed with 12 radiators, gain of 16.09dBi and bandwidth of 0.24GHz in the 24GHz ISM band. The designed antenna had radiation beam perpendicular to the antenna plane, co-polarization gain of 16.09dBi and cross-polarization gain of -10.86dBi. the CSRR-metamaterial increased largely the impedance bandwidth of the antenna from 0.24GHz to 3.6GHz. however as co-polarization gain became 10.08dBi and cross-polarization gain became 14.1dBi, co-polarization was mixed with cross-polarization. And the antenna gain lowered by 1.99dB. On the investigation of the dependence on the split-direction of the CSRR rings, it showed nearly the same characteristics for up-splitted ring used case and down-splitted ring used case. However in the case of arranging up-splitted ring and down-splitted ring in alternation, co-polarization gain decreased to -1.29dBi and cross-polarization gain increased to 13.9dBi, which meant the wave was transited to cross-polarization majority wave.

In this paper, we measured and analyzed cross polarization discrimination(XPD), signal correlation coefficient($\rho$) and received signal level decrease, for the application of polarization diversity scheme in the up-link of microcell environments. We experimented in a dense building area, a dense residence area, a market area, a school area and etc at 1.9 GHz. Cross polarization discrimination (XPD) is about 6~11 dB, signal correlation coefficient($\rho$) is below 0.7 and received signal level decrease is smaller than 3 dB. The results of comparing polarization diversity with space diversity show that polarization diversity gain is about 2~5 dB higher in the various area. As a results, polarization diversity scheme is more effective than space diversity scheme in microcell environments.

The investigation of the polarization cross-coupling in fiber coils was made using white light Michelson interferometer. The white light interferometer has a light source of about 13nm spectral bandwidth and measurement resolution of less than -80dB. The measurement found that the 200m fiber coil has a polarization cross-coupling of about -64dB in average and -46dB in maximum.
