Circular Polarization

Circular polarization is a type of electromagnetic wave polarization in which the electric field vector rotates at a constant rate in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation, tracing a circular helix over time, thereby distinguishing it from linear and elliptical polarization states within the broader class of antenna radiation phenomena.
