Abstract
In recent years, wireless communication networks have advanced significantly. This talk will explore the latest innovations in antenna technology, with a particular emphasis on the use of dual circularly polarized (CP) antennas for satellite communication and wireless power transfer applications.
In wireless systems, CP antennas have emerged as a robust and effective technique to mitigate multipath interference compared to linearly polarized antennas. Furthermore, CP antennas can adapt to various propagation conditions, providing dependable wireless communications and satellite systems. They are particularly useful in urban and indoor settings, as well as in telemetry and satellite positioning systems. For example, in GPS/GNSS scenarios, CP antennas offer significant advantages in mitigating orientation mismatches and reducing multipath interference.
