The electric field of a uniform plane wave travelling along the negative $$z$$ direction is given by the following equation: $$$\overrightarrow E {}_w^i = \left( {{{\widehat a}_{_x}} + j{{\widehat a}_{_y}}} \right){E_0}{e^{jkz}}$$$

This wave is incident upon a receiving antenna placed at the origin and whose radiated electric field towards the incident wave is given by the following equation:

$$${\overrightarrow E _{_a}} = \left( {{{\widehat a}_{_x}} + 2{{\widehat a}_{_y}}} \right){E_1}{1 \over r}{e^{ - jkr}}$$$

The polarization of the incident wave, the polarization of the antenna and losses due to the polarization mismatch are, respectively,

A
Linear, Circular (clockwise), $$−5dB$$
B
Circular (clockwise), Linear, $$−5dB$$
C
Circular (clockwise), Linear, $$−3dB$$
D
Circular (anti clockwise), Linear, $$−3dB$$
