Scientific paper

The authors discuss the measurement of radiowave polarization, made with two crossed monopoles on a spacecraft when the wavelength is about the size of the antenna system. The effective height of a thin linear dipole is approximated by a simple analytical expression valid over a wide wavelength range. This approximation is used to estimate the polarization response of two crossed dipoles for every source direction. The model is applied to the Planetary Radioastronomy experiment in order to explain the anomalies observed in the circular polarization output.
