Propagation
The behavior of radio (electromagnetic) waves as they traverse through space is referred to as radio wave propagation or radio propagation. To comprehend radio communication, it is imperative to delve into the study of antennas and wave propagation.
The effectiveness of radio wave communication relies on three key factors: the transmitter’s power, the distance between the transmitter and receiver, and the receiver’s sensitivity in amplifying weak signals. Interference signals can disrupt reception at any given time, while the presence of noise and transmission line losses can render a strong signal incomprehensible.
To fully grasp the significance of these factors, it is crucial to delve into the nature of radio waves and the conditions that impact their successful propagation.
