Simple Electromagnetic Sensor for Simultaneous Measurement of Three Orthogonal Linear Polarizations

This paper proposes a design of the shorted stacked patch which operates in GSM (900 MHz) band and its integration in the cubic-like sensor structure. Each pair of opposite patches is intended to measure one polarization of the EM field. By adding the three received signals it is possible to obtain the total field strength. Such sensor is capable to measure the strength of three orthogonal polarizations simultaneously.
