Yes, transmission and receiving of signals takes place simultaneously. This possibility exists due to the frequency diversity of the receiving and transmitting channels. Crossed dipoles provide receiving of signals of any polarization. Most dual-polar antenna systems are required to have a high degree of cross-polar discrimination (XPD) so each port receives signals only with the designated polarization.
