3. INTRODUCTION
MICROWAVE Microwaves are radio waves radio waves with wave lengths
ranging from as long as one meter to as short as one millimeter, or
equivalently, with frequencies between 300 MHz (0.3 GHz) and 300 GHz.
4. SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS
Microwaves and radio waves are used to
communicate with satellites. Microwaves
pass straight through the atmosphere and
are suitable for communicating with
distant geostationary satellites, while radio
waves are suitable for communicating with
satellites in low orbit.
• Radio waves have longer wavelengths and are reflected by the
ionosphere (part of the Earth’s atmosphere).
• Microwaves have shorter wavelengths and pass through the
Earth’s
5. TELE- COMMUNICATION
A microwave link is a communications system that uses a beam of radio
waves in the microwave frequency range to transmit video, audio, or data
between two locations, which can be from just a few feet or meters to
several miles or kilometers apart. Modern Microwave Links can carry up to
400Mbps in a 56MHz channel using 256QAM modulation and IP header
compression techniques. Operating Distances for microwave links are
determined by
6. CELLULAR NETWORKS
USE OF MICROWAVE IN CELLULAR ACCESS
TECHNOLOGY Cellular networks are provided by mobile phone
service carriers. Each one has their own. The network is made
up of individual cells emitting radio frequencies through a certain
area. If you are within that area, and use that individual carrier,
you will be able to pick up that cell signal. The carriers license
their service of cell towers with different strengths, whether
they’re 3G or something else. If you have a mobile device that
allows for that strength of cell service, and you’re in an area that
7. WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
MICROWAVE WIRELESS
COMMUNICATION Microwave
wireless communication is an effective
type of communication, mainly this
transmission uses radio waves, and
the wavelengths of radio waves are
measured in centimeters. In this
communication, the data or
information can be transfers using two
methods. One is satellite method and
another one is terrestrial method.
8. RADER
RADAR Radar is a detection system that uses radio waves to determine
the range, angle, or velocity of objects. It can be used to detect aircraft,
ships, spacecraft, guided missiles, motor vehicles, weather formations,
and
terrain. A radar system consists of a transmitter producing
electromagnetic
waves in the radio or microwaves domain, a transmitting antenna, a
receiving antenna and a receiver and processor to determine properties
of the object
Radio waves from the transmitter reflect off the object and return to
GPS
GPS The Global Positioning System works by having each of the 21 active
satellites constantly radiate microwaves. These microwaves are received by the
GPS receiver, which can use the method of ranging to locate its position. At
some known time a satellite emits a signal in the form of microwaves.
