Abstract
A communication system. The communication system communicates to a number of subscribers. The communication system includes a number of communication circuits which are disposed to divide a region into communication areas. Each communication circuit communicates using a first polarization in a first portion of its communication area and communicates using a second, different polarization in a second portion of its communication area. Additionally, adjacent portions of the communication areas of the communication circuits use the same polarization.
Claims39
A communication system comprising:
- a number of communication circuits disposed to divide a region into communication areas;
- wherein each communication circuit communicates using a first polarization in a first portion of its communication area and communicates using a second, different polarization in a second portion of its communication area;
- and
- wherein adjacent portions of communication areas of different communication circuits use the same polarization.
A communication system comprising:
- a number of communication circuits disposed to form boundaries between communication regions;
- and
- wherein the communication circuits use first and second, different polarizations for signals communicated in adjacent regions.
A method comprising:
- dividing a region into a number of communication areas, each communication area including a communication circuit;
- communicating using a first polarization in a first portion of each communication area;
- communicating using a second polarization in a second portion of each communication area;
- and
- wherein adjacent portions of communication areas of the communication circuits use the same polarization.
A method comprising:
- forming boundaries between communication regions by disposing a number of communication circuits;
- communicating using a first polarization in a first region;
- and
- communicating using a second polarization in an adjacent region to the first region.
