Electromagnetic Spectrum EM bunch of types of radiation. Radiation is energy that travels and spreads
out. E.g. visible light that comes from lamp and
radio waves comes from radio station. Electromagnetic radiation can be described in
terms of stream of photons. Mass less particles traveling and moving at the
speed of light. Each photon contain certain amount of energy,
and all ER consists of these photon.

Types of ER Radio has the lowest frequency and longest
wavelength. Wavelengths from few millimeters to about
twenty meters. Microwaves has longer wavelength between
1 mm and 30 cm than visible light. Infrared wavelengths longer than the red
end of visible light and shorter than microwaves.

Types of ER Visible wavelength which the human
eye can see colors ranging from red 700 nm to violet 400 nm.
Ultraviolet wavelengths shorter than the violet end of visible.
X-rays has very short wavelength and very high energy.

Radio Propagation Modes VLF: Very low frequency 3 to 30 KHz
guided between the earth and the ionosphere.
LF: Low Frequency 30 to 300 KHz guided between the earth and the ionosphere, Ground Waves.
MF: Medium Frequency 300 to 3000 KHz Ground waves, E layer ionospheric refraction at night, when D layer absorption disappears.

Propagation Ways
Antenna Ground ways Line of sight propagation Sky wave propagation Diffraction Absorption
![Page 10: Radio Propagation for communiation](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012906/55cf998a550346d0339de4ca/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Antenna Beginning and end of
communication. Provide gain and directivity on both
end. Take off angle depends on:
Type of antenna Height of antenna Terrain
![Page 11: Radio Propagation for communiation](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012906/55cf998a550346d0339de4ca/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Ground Ways Follows the curvature of the earth. Waves are attenuated because
ground is not a good conductor. VLF and LF frequencies are used
for military communication. Radio services relied exclusively
on long wave.
![Page 12: Radio Propagation for communiation](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012906/55cf998a550346d0339de4ca/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Line of Sight Propagation Direct propagation that are visible. signal can travel through many non-
metallic objects. Example Satellite and reception of
television signals. Ground plane reflection effects are an
important factor. Interference between direct beam and
ground reflected beam.
![Page 13: Radio Propagation for communiation](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012906/55cf998a550346d0339de4ca/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Sky Wave Propagation Sky waves also referred as skip. Refraction of radio waves in the
ionosphere. F2 layer most important layer for HF
propagation. Layers directly affected by the sun. Sky wave modes used in amateur radio
operators, commercial marine and aircraft communication.
![Page 14: Radio Propagation for communiation](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012906/55cf998a550346d0339de4ca/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Diffraction Radio waves are bent around sharp edges. Used over a mountain range. Line-of-sight path is not available. Diffraction mode requires increased signal
strength. Signals for urban cellular telephony. Where multi-path propagation, absorption
and diffraction phenomena dominent.
![Page 15: Radio Propagation for communiation](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012906/55cf998a550346d0339de4ca/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Absorption Low frequency radio waves travel easily
through brick and stone. VLF even penetrates sea-water. Shows frequency rises absorption effects. Microwave and high frequencies absorption
is major factor in radio propagation. 58 to 60 GHz band major absorption peak,
so band is useless for long distance use.

Radio Wave Propagation Term used to explain how radio waves
behave when they are transmitted. Mechanism are diverse, but
characterized by reflection, diffraction and scattering.

Log Distance Path Loss Model Path loss a signal encounters inside a
building over distance. Model applicable to indoor attenuation.
L = Path loss inside building. Decibel Lo = Path loss at reference distance.
Decibel Ɣ = Path loss distance exponent. See table Xg = Gaussian random variable. See table
