In satellite communication, how is it possible to differentiate between
right or left circular polarization. Is it done by introducing a phase
shift between both left and right circular signals ?


Probably not the answer Nexus is seeking, but the helical antenna type
naturally distinguishes rt and left helical polarizations by selectively
receiving one type. It comes in either of two chiralities.
