SKY WAVE OR IONOSPHERIC PROPAGATION ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Understanding the Atmosphere**: - The Earth is surrounded by an atmosphere that extends to about 1000 kilometers. Within this atmosphere, there exists a layer known as the ionosphere. **Hint**: Remember that the ionosphere is a region of the atmosphere that contains ions and free electrons, which play a crucial role in radio wave propagation. 2. **Defining the Ionosphere**: ...

Sky Wave Propagation

Space Wave Propagation

As a wave propagates

Statement-I : Electromagnetic waves with frequencies smaller than the critical frequency of ionosphere cannot be used for communication using sky wave propagation Statement-II : The refractive index of the ionosphere becomes very high for frequency.

(A) : Sometimes HF waves can also pass through ionosphere. (R) : The sky wave propagation depends on the vertical angle with which the radio waves are radiated from the antenna.
