Abstract
The optimum polarization of a receiving antenna is defined as that which will reject the polarization of an unwanted signal whilst delivering maximum power when receiving a desired polarization. A method for determining this optimum polarization is given in the general case when the two signals are interdependent, and, in particular, when they are radar signals whose polarizations are functions of the polarization of the transmitted wave.
