Radome Mounted Polarising Grids.

Abstract

Polarizing grids supported on the surfaces of an 'A' sandwich radome structure are described. Grids consisting of two and four wire layers have been tested and shown capable of changing the polarized direction of the radiated field from an X band antenna by 45 degrees and 90 degrees respectively. A radome mounted grid capable of providing a continuous adjustment of polarization direction over a limited angular range is also described. (Author)
