A method and apparatus for communicating simultaneously at the same frequencies
includes two or more conductor-backed, spiral antennas that have been shown to
exhibit linear polarization. To permit simultaneous transmission on the same frequencies,
two of the linearly polarize, conductor-backed spiral antennas can be spaced vertically
and be oriented so that the feed points of one antenna are orthogonal to the feed
points of the second antenna. Since the specifically designed spiral antennas will
be both transmitting or both receiving at orthogonally arranged polarizations,
the antennas will not interfere with each other, even though communication is upon
substantially the same frequencies.
