Antenne pouvant émettre dans son champ éloigné, une onde électromagnétique de polarisation elliptique. 1, record 1, French, - antenne%20%C3%A0%20polarisation%20elliptique
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
La polarisation d'une antenne est celle du champ électrique E de l'onde qu'elle émet. Un dipôle demi-onde horizontal a donc une polarisation horizontale. Certaines antennes ont une polarisation elliptique ou circulaire (antenne hélice) ou une polarisation croisée (double-yagi dont les plans sont perpendiculaires). Le fait d'utiliser deux antennes de polarisations différentes pour réaliser une liaison introduit des pertes supplémentaires importantes. 2, record 1, French, - antenne%20%C3%A0%20polarisation%20elliptique
