Crossed Dipole

A type of antenna configuration that involves two dipole antennas positioned at right angles to each other and typically fed in phase quadrature. Also known as a turnstile antenna, its design enables it to radiate a circularly polarised wavefront, meaning it can communicate effectively with other antennas regardless of their orientation. This makes crossed dipole antennas particularly useful in applications where the orientation of the transmitter and receiver may vary, such as in satellite communication systems.
