Abstract
The present invention describes methods and apparatus for adaptive polarization transmission. An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides an adaptive polarization transmission method. The method includes the step of analyzing at a transmitter device a first set of polarization state information relating to a first wireless signal path. Furthermore, the method includes the step of adapting a transmission signal to be distributed by the transmitter device based on at least the first set of polarization state information. In addition to adaptive polarization transmission methods, the present invention provides various adaptive polarization transmission systems. In an exemplary embodiment, an adaptive polarization transmission system includes a transmitter device. The transmitter device includes an analyzing unit for processing a first set of polarization state information relating to a first wireless signal path. Furthermore, the transmitter device includes an adapting unit for adapting a transmission signal to be distributed by the transmitter device based on at least the first set polarization state information.
