Usage Examples English
  • Around 1910, William Eccles proposed the name "Heaviside Layer" for the radio-wave reflecting layer in the upper atmosphere, and the name has subsequently been widely adopted.
  • When a radio wave reaches the ionosphere, the electric field in the wave forces the electrons in the ionosphere into oscillation at the same frequency as the radio wave.
  • Hertz did not realize the practical importance of his radio wave experiments. He stated that,), Hertz's research on contact mechanics has facilitated the age of nanotechnology.
  • A whistler is a very low frequency (VLF) electromagnetic (radio) wave generated by lightning.
  • Because water molecules absorb microwaves and other radio wave frequencies, water in the atmosphere attenuates radar signals.

  • If the frequency of the oscillations is high enough, in the radio frequency range above about 20 kHz, the oscillating coupled electric and magnetic fields will radiate away from the antenna into space as an electromagnetic wave, a radio wave.
  • Radio wave propagation is affected by atmospheric conditions, ionospheric absorption, and the presence of obstructions, for example mountains or trees.
  • at least 19 years ahead of the first spoken radio wave transmissions.
  • Path loss normally includes "propagation losses" caused by the natural expansion of the radio wave front in free space (which usually takes the shape of an ever-increasing sphere), "absorption losses" (sometimes called penetration losses), when the signal passes through media not transparent to electromagnetic waves, "diffraction losses" when part of the radiowave front is obstructed by an opaque obstacle, and losses caused by other phenomena.
  • A beam waveguide antenna is a type of complicated Cassegrain antenna with a long radio wave path to allow the feed electronics to be located at ground level.

  • Since the refractive index of the ionosphere (a plasma), is less than unity, electromagnetic waves propagating through the plasma are bent "away from the normal" (see Geometric optics) allowing the radio wave to be refracted back toward earth, thus enabling long-distance radio communications.
  • FM uses frequency modulation of the radio wave to reduce static and interference from electrical equipment and the atmosphere.
  • In descriptions of the electromagnetic spectrum, some sources classify microwaves as radio waves, a subset of the radio wave band, while others classify microwaves and radio waves as distinct types of radiation.
  • the distance a radio wave travels in a vacuum, in one second, is [...] , which is the wavelength of a 1 hertz radio signal.
  • The satellite was not placed in orbit for the purpose of sending data from one point on earth to another; the radio transmitter was meant to study the properties of radio wave distribution throughout the ionosphere.

  • In radio communication, skywave communication is a technique in which radio waves are transmitted at an angle into the sky and reflected back to Earth by layers of charged particles in the ionosphere.
