The GTEM is a guided wave device and usually we tend to think of polarization in terms of free space (unguided waves). Being a TEM transmission line, the direction of the field in the cell is between the inner and outer conductor, the way most GTEM's are constructed and given the location where the EUT is located you could describe it as "vertical polarization"
