The interference between closely placed co-coverage satellites was analyzed. In general, a satellite network may use different orthogonal polarizations and frequencies to increase the throughput of a satellite. However, when orthogonal linear polarization (horizontal polarization and vertical polarization) or orthogonal circular polarization (left-handed circular polarization and right-handed circular polarization) is used, the signal from one polarization sense to another may be coupled, resulting in cross-polarization interference. This signal-coupling arises due to the finite value of the cross-polarization discrimination of the earth station. In this study, field equations were used to analyze the interference between adjacent satellites using co-frequency. The level of interference was compared to that when two adjacent satellites used the same polarization. The simulation results show that the interference mainly depends on the off-axis co-polar pattern and the cross-polar pattern of the earth station antenna.

A low cross-polarization broadband stacked patch antenna is proposed. By means of the stacked patch configuration and probe-fed strip feed technique, the VSWR 1.2:1 bandwidth of the patch antenna is enhanced to 22% from 804 MHz to 1,002 MHz, which outperforms the other available patch antennas (<10%). Furthermore, the antenna has a cross-polarization level of less than -20 dB and a gain level of about 9 dBi across the operating bandwidth. Simulation results are compared with the measurements, and a good agreement is observed.

본 논문에서는 마이크로셀 환경에서 상향경로(Up- Link)에서의 면파 다이버시티 기법 적용에 필요한 파라미 터인 교차편파 변별도(cross polarization discrimination: XPD). 신호상관계수(signal correlation coefficient:$\rho$). 수신선호 감쇠값(received signal decrease) 등을 측정을 통하여 분석하였다. 1.9 GHz에서 측정되었으며 빌딩밀집지역, 주택밀집지역. 상권지역, 학교지역 등 서울 도심지역의 여러 환경에서 자료들을 수집하였다. 자료분석 결과 교차편파 변별도(XPD)는 환경에 따라 6~11 dB 측정되었고, 신호상관계수($\rho$)는 0.7보다 낮았으며, 수신선호 감쇠값은 3dB보다 작았다. 공간 다이버시티와 성능비교 분석결과. 편파 다이버시티 이득이 환경에 따라 2-5 dB 정도 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 그러므로, 편파 다이버시티 기법은 마이크로 셀 환경에서 효과적으로 사용될 수 있는 다이버시티 기법으로 판단된다

This letter presents an antenna design method for an orthogonally-polarized dual antenna for use in mobile stations (MSs) and includes a verification method for improving the link-level throughput performance of an MS that uses a proposed multiple-input multiple-output antenna. The link-level throughput performance of an MS is strongly related to the correlation between antenna branches, which is determined by the cross polarization discrimination of the second branch antenna, both numerically and experimentally.

Preliminary results are reported on ship detection using coherence images computed from cross-correlating images of multi-look-processed dual-polarization data (HH and HV) of ENVISAT ASAR. The traditional techniques of ship detection by radars such as CFAR (Constant False Alarm Rate) rely on the amplitude data, and therefore the detection tends to become difficult when the amplitudes of ships images are at similar level as the mean amplitude of surrounding sea clutter. The proposed method utilizes the property that the multi-look images of ships are correlated with each other. Because the inter-look images of sea surface are covered by uncorrelated speckle, cross-correlation of multi-look images yields the different degrees of coherence between the images and water. In this paper, the polarimetric information of ships, land and intertidal zone are first compared based on the cross-correlation between HH and HV images, In the next step, we examine the technique when the dual-polarization data are split into two multi-look images, It was shown that the inter-look cross-correlation method could be applicable in the performance improvement of small ship detection and the land masking, It was also found that a simple combination of coherence images from each co-polarised (HH) inter-look and cross-polarised (HV) inter-look data can provide much higher target-detection possibilities.

이중 편파는 직교성을 갖는 두개의 편파를 의미하며 통신상에서 두 개의 독립적인 채널로 간주되어 저궤도 위성에서 관측한 대용량의 데이터를 효과적으로 전송하는데 사용되어 진다. 하지만, 현실적으로 두 개의 편파는 서로가 완벽하게 독립적이지 않기 때문에 각 채널에는 간섭신호가 발생되어 결국 통과대역내의 잡음을 상승 시키는 문제를 야기한다. XPD(Cross-Polarization Discrimination)는 수신안테나와 동일한 편파로 송신된 신호와 상반된 편파로 송신된 신호가 수신 안테나의 출력에서 발생될 때 두 신호간의 비를 나타낸 것이다. 본 논문에서는 KOMPSAT-2에서 마치 이중 편파가 적용된 것처럼 가정한 뒤에 위성과 지상국간의 XPD의 영향을 분석하였다. 본 논문에서의 분석을 통해 99%의 환경적인 가용성과 0.5dB의 위성안테나 축비를 가정하였을 때, 2.5dB의 worst한 축비를 갖는 지상국 안테나를 고려함에도 불구하고 3dB 이상의 링크 마진을 확인할 수 있었다.

The LHCP circularly polarized antenna operating at DBS band is developed by employing the sequential-rotation technique in which each subarray is comprised the three truncated-corner patch square element. Antenna designed with sequentially-related technique whose M=3, p=2 has the effect of improved axial-ratio bandwidth, cross-polarization etc. And it is proved that the degradation of radiation pattern can be reduced significantly by minimizing the radiation loss of feeding line structure. Antenna designed shows extremely low side lobe level of below - 25 dB in the diagonal plane and cross-polarization level of below -20 dB in the all plane. And these performances comply with the array antenna specification for DBS.
