In this contribution, we expand the possibility offered by structured fields at microwave frequencies by exploiting phase singularity points of vortex modes for designing a single radiating structure exhibiting orthogonal radiation patterns pointing in different directions. This kind of structure, being able to radiate two orthogonal polarizations with low-coupling levels, can be exploited in compact multi-antenna systems for antenna diversity or MIMO applications.

Abstract
In this contribution, we expand the possibility offered by structured fields at microwave frequencies by exploiting phase singularity points of vortex modes for designing a single radiating structure exhibiting orthogonal radiation patterns pointing in different directions. This kind of structure, being able to radiate two orthogonal polarizations with low-coupling levels, can be exploited in compact multi-antenna systems for antenna diversity or MIMO applications.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
