Orthogonal directions of polarization refer to two perpendicular directions in which an electromagnetic wave's electric field oscillates. In these directions, the electric fields are independent of each other and can be represented as perpendicular vectors. This property is commonly seen in linearly polarized light.

What are the three directions in which stress can be applied?

In any three orthogonal directions.


Why use orthogonal signal space?

One reason is that anything which happens in one of the orthogonal directions has no effect on what happens in another orthogonal direction. Thus, for example, the horizontal component of a force will not have any effect in the vertical direction.


Three dimensions figures are measured by what?

They can be measured by their linear measures in three orthogonal directions.


Is height the same thing as length?

No. In 3-dimensional space, the extent of a body is usually measured in three mutually perpendicular (orthogonal) directions. The height of an object is its extent in the vertical direction. Length usually refers to the largest extent in the three orthogonal directions.


What is cross polarization isolation?

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.


How does a linear polarizer affect the transmission of circularly polarized light?

A linear polarizer can block or reduce the transmission of circularly polarized light by filtering out one of the two orthogonal components of the circular polarization. This results in a change in the polarization state of the light passing through the polarizer.


What are width length and height?

They are measures of distance in 3-Dimensional space. The measures are normally in three orthogonal directions.


What is the term givin to vectors the go in different directions?

Vectors that go in different directions are called orthogonal vectors. This means that the vectors are perpendicular to each other, with a 90 degree angle between them.


What is the definition of orthogonal signal space?

Orthogonal signal space is defined as the set of orthogonal functions, which are complete. In orthogonal vector space any vector can be represented by orthogonal vectors provided they are complete.Thus, in similar manner any signal can be represented by a set of orthogonal functions which are complete.


What is co-polarization?

Analysis of circular polarization (CP) utilizes two independent, orthogonal, components: right- and left-hand circular (RHC and LHC). The desirable component, having the intended sence of rotation (right, or left), is called the copolarization component. The undesirable component, with the opposite polarization, is called the crosspolarization component. The mix of copolarization and crosspolarization components determine the quality of CP and correlates with the axial ratio.
