Abstract

Radio waves are generated by a transmitter and detected by a receiver which operate over a range of frequencies. Radio waves are usually transmitted across 2 different locations over a large distance and hence the outdoor weather conditions may affect the transmission of radio waves, due to temperature. This paper aims to observe the relationship of temperature against the efficiency of transmitting radio waves across a distance. This will also study the effects of temperature on radio waves or what type of radio waves are transmitted most efficiently in a certain temperature to mitigate any major problems in real life contexts when important and classified information is transmitted.

The effect of temperature and humidity on the transmission of radio waves

Radio waves are generated by a transmitter and detected by a receiver which operate over a range of frequencies. Radio waves are usually transmitted across 2 different locations over a large distance and hence the outdoor weather conditions may affect the transmission of radio waves, due to temperature. This paper aims to observe the relationship of temperature against the efficiency of transmitting radio waves across a distance. This will also study the effects of temperature on radio waves or what type of radio waves are transmitted most efficiently in a certain temperature to mitigate any major problems in real life contexts when important and classified information is transmitted.
