What happens when a vertical or horizontal polarized antenna receives a circular polarized wave?(a) Gain increases(b) Signal strength increases(c) Signal strength reduces(d) Cannot receive circular polarized wavesI got this question in exam.This key question is from Antenna Fundamentals in portion Antennas and Wave Propagation of Avionics

Answer»

The correct option is (C) SIGNAL strength reduces

Explanation: A VERTICAL or horizontal antenna can receive circular polarized signals, but the signal strength is reduced. When circular polarization is USED at both TRANSMITTER and receiver, both must use either left- or right-hand polarization if the signal is to be received.
