Polarization describes the orientation of the radiated wave's electric field. For maximum performance polarization must be matched to the orientation of the radiated field to receive the maximum field intensity of the electromagnetic wave. If it is not oriented properly, we lose a portion of the signal, know as polarization loss. Dependent on the antenna type, it is possible to radiate linear, elliptical, and circular signals. 2, record 1, English, - polarization%20loss
