Abstract
A method of reducing depolarization of a wireless signal passing through an antenna radome. An angle of incidence of the signal relative to the radome is determined. From the determined angle of incidence, at least one offset to signal depolarization attributable to the radome is determined. The offset is applied to the signal to reduce depolarization of the signal. When the foregoing method is implemented, effects of radome depolarization in transmit and/or receive modes can be substantially reduced or eliminated.
