Cross polarisation isolation or Cross Polarisation Discrinimation (XPD) is the difference in dB of received signal level (RSL) at the receiver when in turn, the transmitter has the same and different polarisation with the receiver. A antenna with this greater value is prefered.

This information is useful in microwace design when in the same area we can use the same frequency with different polarisation . For example:

TX1 : vertical polarisation ---> RX1 : Vertical pol.

TX2 : horizontal pol. ---> RX2 : horizontal pol.

They all operate in the same frequency. The signal from TX1 , TX2 will be separated corresponding to the value of XPD.

Cross polarization is the polarization orthogonal to the desired polarization. For instance, if the fields from an antenna are meant to be horizontally polarized, the cross-polarization in this case is vertical polarization. If the polarization is Right Hand Circularly Polarized (RHCP), the cross-polarization is Left Hand Circularly Polarized (LHCP).

Are cross-element Yagi antennas always circularly polarized?

No. They can be circularly polarized with the correct phasing harness, or used as a way to switch between horizontal and vertical polarization with one antenna. No. They can be circularly polarized with the correct phasing harness, or used as a way to switch between horizontal and vertical polarization with one antenna.


What is polarization index?

Polarization Index is an indicator which gives an idea of the cleanliness of the windings. It is a ratio of the Insulation Resistance Measured for 10 minutes to the insulation resistance value measured after 1 minute. Since it is a ratio; it does not have any units.Polarization Ratio = Insulation Resistance after 10 minutes/ Insulation Resistance after 1 minuteThe Polarization Index should be above 2.0 to be permissible. Machines having PI below 2.0 cannot be operated. The Polarization Index does not have any significant relation with temperature upto 50 deg. C. However, the Polarization Index test should not be conducted at a temperature beyond 50 deg. C


What is non isolation transformer?

I also have the same question. After some research, I understand that you cant just jump in and calculate this. You have to have alot of information about that spesific generator.I have found out that you can use some formulas from losses in transfomers.AnswerAll mutual transformers are isolation transformers in the sense that the secondary winding is electrically-isolated from the primary winding. However, this is not the case for an autotransformer where part of the winding is common to both primary and secondary circuits.So, to answer your question, an autotransformer is a 'non-isolation' transformer, although the term 'non-isolation' is not normally used.Read more: How_do_we_calculate_Power_generator_losses


What is the difference between an isolation transformer and distribution transformer?

in isolation transformer earthing is not provide on secondary side but in ordinary transformer neutral of secondary side is earthedAnswerAn isolation transformer is a 1:1 ratio transformer; its function is to electrically isolate the secondary side from the primary side without changing the voltage. An example of an isolation transformer is the one used in a shaver socket.A distribution transformer is a step-down transformer, used within the electricity network's distribution system. An example of distribution transformer is a pole-mounted transformer, supplying low voltage to residences.(Of course, all mutual transformers provide electrical isolation between primary and secondary.)


What is isolation resistance?

I think you mean, 'insulation' resistance! It's the resistance of insulation, normally expressed in megohms.

What is cross-polarization?

AnswerIn RF communications, there are basically 3 common polarizations. They are horizontal polarization, vertical polarization, and circular polarization. Use the link below on antenna theory and see some examples and gather more information.Basically, polarization describes how the E-field is moving when it leaves the antenna.In horizontal polarization the signal moves in a horizontal fashion (-).In vertical polarization the signal moves in a vertical fashion (|).In circular polarization the signal moves in a circular fashion (O) with either left-handed or right-handed rotation.Now, when you want to talk to someone using horizontal or vertical polarization you want to match their angle of polarization exactly for the strongest signal.Cross-polarization is radiation orthogonal to the desired polarization. For instance, the cross-polarization of a vertically polarized antenna is the horizontally polarized fields.This is important to know because when you are setting up something like a satellite connection. In order to allow more signals through the satellite transponder within a fixed bandwidth and with decreased interference, the satellite makers alternate the polarization between adjacent transponder channels. (-|-|-|-|-|-|). Two adjacent channels can be "shoved right up against each other" and will interfere in a minimal way if they are polarized oppositely. Since interference affects their customers, satellite vendors are very touchy about proper polarization, and monitor gaps, called "guard bands" to ensure that you are properly aligned.

What is concentration polarization cross flow filtration?

Convective and back-diffusive flow of solvent can cause a build-up of dissolved solutes and macromolecules near and on the surface of the membrane this is known as concentration polarization. When concentration polarization occurs there is a differential solute concentration between the membrane surface and the bulk of the feed stream. The osmotic pressure in the polarized layer due to the high local solute concentration lowers the transmembrane pressure therefore decreasing flux. In cross -flow filtration there is a general decline in flux over time of operation this is due to concentration polarization. The decline in flux can be restored with the manipulation of the operating parameters.
