On the basis of using the Jones vectors and matrices, we develop the polarization-modulation method for determining the aircraft bearing and roll by the radio-beacon radiated waves with orthogonal linear polarization, which was proposed in [1]. The waves are simultaneously radiated from two points with the known coordinates, which are spaced in the measurement plane. The engineering realization of the method, which is based on using the polarization modulator placed in the single-channel microwave transmission line of an onboard receiving antenna of an aircraft, is considered. The polarization modulator has the form of the rotating segment of a circular waveguide with a built-in half-wave phase plate. Mathematical expressions, which provide a clear physical understanding of the aircraft bearing and roll relation to polarization and spectral characteristics of the resulting onboard-recorded wave field of the radio beacon in the linear polarization basis, are presented.

从无线电信标辐射的正交线极化波在测量飞机轴承和滚动的调制方法中的应用

在使用琼斯向量和矩阵的基础上，我们开发了一种偏振调制方法，用于通过具有正交线性偏振的无线电信标辐射波来确定飞机的方位和滚转，该方法在[1]中被提出。波从具有已知坐标的两个点同时辐射，这些点在测量平面中间隔开。考虑了该方法的工程实现，该方法基于将偏振调制器放置在飞机机载接收天线的单通道微波传输线上。偏振调制器具有圆形波导的旋转段的形式，带有内置的半波相位板。数学表达式，
