Generation of OAM radio waves with three polarizations using circular horn antenna array

Abstract

An effective solution of generating OAM-carrying radio beams with three polarizations is provided. Through the reasonable configuration of phased antenna array using elements with three polarizations, the OAM radio waves with three polarizations for different states can be generated. The vectors of electric fields with different OAM states for linear, as well as left or right circular polarizations are presented and analyzed in detail.
