TLDR
In this paper, a geodesic Luneberg lens antenna structure of nonplanar construction excited by horizontally and vertically polarized electromagnetic energy was proposed. But the antenna structure was not designed for non-planar applications.Abstract:
The invention is for a geodesic Luneberg lens antenna structure of nonplanar construction excited by horizontally and vertically polarized electromagnetic energy. Excitation of the lens by a single dual polarized feed will produce two divergent beams - one horizontally and the other vertically polarized. Excitation of the lens by two separate feeds at locations indicated by application of the criteria disclosed herein will result in the capability of providing arbitrary elliptical polarization including linear and circular polarization.read more

Multi-function interactive communications system with circularly/elliptically polarized signal transmission and reception
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a communications system that uses electromagnetic waves and uses polarization diversity to increase the capacity of a channel, which can eliminate or reduce the effects of precipitation and/or reflection and diffraction from objects, and is well suited for an urban environment.
