Calculate Polarization of an Antenna
The calculator can calculate linear- polarization, circular- polarization and elliptical-polarization of antennas based on selection.
Polarization of the wave radiated by an antenna is known as antenna polarization.
Formula:
E x = a ×Cos(ωt - β z)
E y = b × Cos(ωt - βz + phi)
Where,
β = 2 π / λ
E x =Electric Field X-axis
E y = Electric Field Y-axis
a = X axis value
b = Y axis value
z = Z axis value
ω = Angular Frequency
t = Time Period
n = Number of values
λ = Wave length
The antenna polarization is a critical aspect of antenna performance and polarization is the direction in which the electric field of a radio wave oscillates while it propagates through a medium. The antenna polarization are vertical, horizontal, right/left hand circular. The polarization of an antenna is based on the E-plane orientation of the electromagnetic energy radiated/received by the antenna
Polarization Conditions:
1. Linear: phi = n × π,
2. Circular: phi = (n + 1) × π / 2 and a = b,
3. Elliptical: phi = (n + 1) × π / 2 and a ≠ b
