'In many ways, the manufacturing strategy is helping us redefine and reinvent how we do business in General Motors,' said Scott Whybrew, GM's executive director of global manufacturing engineering.
When the phase shift is exactly Â±90Â°, then circular polarization is produced (fourth and fifth figures). Thus is circular polarization created in practice, starting with linearly polarized light and employing a quarter-wave plate to introduce such a phase shift.
Polarization is the physical orientation of the element on the antenna that actually emits the RF energy. An omnidirectional antenna, for example, is usually a vertical polarized antenna. Directional antennas focus the RF energy in a particular direction.ipole antennas are said to have a gain of 2.14 dBi, which is in comparison to an isotropic antenna. The higher the gain of the antennas, the smaller the vertical beamwidth is. Imagine the radiation pattern of an isotropic antenna as a balloon, which extends from the antenna equally in all directions.
