Abstract :
Most wireless communication systems currently employ single- or dual-polarized antennas which measure one or two components of the received electromagnetic (EM) signal. In this paper, we investigate the performance gains achievable by using "vector antennas" that can detect or excite up to six independent degrees of freedom.
