This is the Testbed polarization channel mapping. This is the polarization result if you use the getGraphfromRFChan Function:
/* Channel mappings for the testbed
Channel 0: H Pol
Channel 1: H Pol
Channel 2: V Pol
Channel 3: V Pol
Channel 4: V Pol
Channel 5: H Pol
Channel 6: V Pol
Channel 7: H Pol
Channel 8: V Pol
Channel 9: H Pol
Channel 10: V Pol
Channel 11: H Pol
Channel 12: H Pol
Channel 13: H Pol
Channel 14: Surface
Channel 15: Surface

Also, the Testbed has a somewhat bizarre menagerie of antennas. Here's how to understand it:
Basically the testbed was weird. There are four bowtie slotted cylinders deployed at ~30 m (these are the "deep hpol") and four bicones deployed at ~30 m (these are the "deep vpol"). So 8 total there: four V, four H.
Then, there are two quad slotted cylinders deployed at ~30m, but because they are different from bowties, they are technically hpol, but aren't counted as deep hpol. That brings us to 10. Four V, six H.
Then, there are two discones at ~2m, which count as vpol, but because they are different than the bicones and deployed shallow, they aren't deep. That brings us to 12 total: six vpol, six hpol.
Then, there are two batwings at ~2m, which counts as hpol, but because they are different than the bowtie and the quad slot and deployed shallow, they're in a class of their own. That brings us to fourteen: six vpol, eight hpol.
Finally, there are two fat dipoles right on the surface, which count as neither polarization, which brings us up to 16 total. |
