  2. Electromagnetic interference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_interference

    Electromagnetic interference (EMI), also called radio-frequency interference (RFI) when in the radio frequency spectrum, is a disturbance generated by an external source that affects an electrical circuit by electromagnetic induction, electrostatic coupling, or conduction. [1]

  3. High frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_frequency

    High frequency (HF) is the ITU designation [1] for the band of radio waves with frequency between 3 and 30 megahertz (MHz). It is also known as the decameter band or decameter wave as its wavelengths range from one to ten decameters (ten to one hundred meters).

  4. Radio noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_noise

    The limiting noise source in a receiver depends on the frequency range in use: At frequencies below about 40 MHz but above about 20 MHz, nearby radio frequency interference caused by human-made devices is the main issue, and lightning in occasional storms that pass within line-of-sight of the antenna.

  5. Radio propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_propagation

    Radio propagation is the behavior of radio waves as they travel, or are propagated, from one point to another in vacuum, or into various parts of the atmosphere. [1]: 26‑1 As a form of electromagnetic radiation, like light waves, radio waves are affected by the phenomena of reflection, refraction, diffraction, absorption, polarization, and scattering. [2]

  6. Near and far field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_and_far_field

    For such an antenna, the near field is the region within a radius r ≪ λ, while the far-field is the region for which r ≫ 2 λ. The transition zone is the region between r = λ and r = 2 λ . The length of the antenna, D, is not important, and the approximation is the same for all shorter antennas (sometimes idealized as so-called point ...

  7. Very high frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Very_high_frequency

    Very high frequency (VHF) is the ITU designation [1] for the range of radio frequency electromagnetic waves (radio waves) from 30 to 300 megahertz (MHz), with corresponding wavelengths of ten meters to one meter. Frequencies immediately below VHF are denoted high frequency (HF), and the next higher frequencies are known as ultra high frequency ...

  8. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_(radio)

    High-gain antennas have the advantage of longer range and better signal quality, but must be aimed carefully at the other antenna. An example of a high-gain antenna is a parabolic dish such as a satellite television antenna. Low-gain antennas have shorter range, but the orientation of the antenna is relatively unimportant.

  9. Super high frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_high_frequency

    Super high frequency (SHF) is the ITU designation for radio frequencies (RF) in the range between 3 and 30 gigahertz (GHz). This band of frequencies is also known as the centimetre band or centimetre wave as the wavelengths range from one to ten centimetres.
