Transmission Media Communication channels in the animal world include touch, sound, sight, and scent. Electric eels even use electric pulses. Ravens also are very expressive. By a combination voice, patterns of feather erection and body posture ravens communicate so clearly that an experienced observer can identify anger, affection, hunger, curiosity, playfulness, fright, boldness, and depression.

Can be received by many antennas. Can be received by many antennas.

Wireless Transmission Frequencies  >1 GHz to 40GHz microwave microwave highly directional highly directional point to point point to point satellite satellite  30MHz to 1GHz (radio) omnidirectional omnidirectional broadcast radio broadcast radio  3 x to 2 x infrared infrared local local

Antennas  electrical conductor used to radiate or collect electromagnetic energy  transmission antenna radio frequency energy from transmitter radio frequency energy from transmitter converted to electromagnetic energy by antenna converted to electromagnetic energy by antenna radiated into surrounding environment radiated into surrounding environment  reception antenna electromagnetic energy impinging on antenna electromagnetic energy impinging on antenna converted to radio frequency electrical energy converted to radio frequency electrical energy fed to receiver fed to receiver  same antenna is often used for both purposes

36 Radiation Pattern  Away to characterize the performance of an antenna  A graphical representation of the radiation as a function of space coordinates  Power radiated in all directions  Not same performance in all directions  Isotropic antenna is (theoretical) point in space Radiates in all directions equally Radiates in all directions equally Gives spherical radiation pattern Gives spherical radiation pattern

Radiation Pattern

38 Parabolic Reflective Antenna  Used for terrestrial and satellite microwave  Parabola is locus of point equidistant from a line and a point not on that line Fixed point is focus Fixed point is focus Line is directrix Line is directrix  Revolve parabola about axis to get paraboloid Cross section parallel to axis gives parabola Cross section parallel to axis gives parabola Cross section perpendicular to axis gives circle Cross section perpendicular to axis gives circle  Source placed at focus will produce waves reflected from parabola in parallel to axis Creates (theoretical) parallel beam of light/sound/radio Creates (theoretical) parallel beam of light/sound/radio  On reception, signal is concentrated at focus, where detector is placed

Parabolic Reflective Antenna

Antenna Gain  measure of directionality of antenna  power output in particular direction verses that produced by an isotropic antenna  measured in decibels (dB)  results in loss in power in another direction  effective area relates to size and shape related to gain related to gain

Antenna Gain G= Antenna gain  A e = effective area (related to the physical size of the antenna and to its shape) F = carrier frequency C = speed of light  the effective area of an ideal isotropic antenna is with a power gain of 1  effective area of a parabolic antenna with a face area of A is 0.56A

57 Refraction  Velocity of electromagnetic wave is a function of density of material ~3 x 10 8 m/s in vacuum, less in anything else ~3 x 10 8 m/s in vacuum, less in anything else  As wave moves from one medium to another, its speed changes Causes bending of direction of wave at boundary Causes bending of direction of wave at boundary Moving from a less dense to a more dense medium Moving from a less dense to a more dense medium Towards more dense mediumTowards more dense medium

58 Refraction  Index of refraction (refractive index) of one medium relative to another is sin(angle of incidence)/sin(angle of refraction) sin(angle of incidence)/sin(angle of refraction) Varies with wavelength Varies with wavelength  May cause sudden change of direction at transition between media  May cause gradual bending if medium density is varying Density of atmosphere decreases with height Density of atmosphere decreases with height Results in bending towards earth of radio waves Results in bending towards earth of radio waves
