Why is ground wave propagation not suitable for high frequency ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In ground wave propagation loss of energy of the signal increases with the increase in frequency of the signal as it is absorbed by the earth. That is why ground wave propagation is restricted upto a frequency of 1500 KHz
