b. sky wave
QUESTION:
What is the wavelength of a radio signal travelling at a frequency of 220 MHz in a coaxial line having Teflon foam as
its dielectric, εr = 2?
ANSWER:
c. 0.96 m
c = 3 x 108 m/sec = 300 x 106 m/sec
velocity factor vf = 1 / sqrt (εr) = 1 / sqrt (2) = 0.707 = vP / c
Therefore the velocity of the radio signal in the coaxial line is …
vP = 0.707c = 0.707 (300 x 106) = 212,132,034.36 m/sec (or 212 x 106 m/sec approx.)
so that the wavelength of the signal is …
λ = vP / f = 212 x 106 / 220 x 106 = 0.963636… m or 0.96 m approx.
QUESTION:
What is the angle of refraction in a Teflon (ε r2 = 2) medium of a radio wave from air (ε r1 = 1.0) if its angle of
incidence is 45°?
ANSWER:
d. 30°
Using Snell’s Law…
Sqrt (εr1) sin θi = Sqrt (εr2) sin θr
Sqrt (1) sin 45° = Sqrt (2) sin θr
θr = sin-1 [(Sqrt (1) sin 45°) / Sqrt (2)] = sin-1 (0.5) = 30°
QUESTION:
An ionosphere layer also termed as “absorption layer” because it absorbs most of the frequencies above 100 kHz is
known as the … layer.
ANSWER:
a. D
The D layer has a critical frequency in the order of 100 kHz. Even MF band frequencies are absorbed by
this layer during sky wave propagation particularly in AM and SW radio broadcasting.
QUESTION:
As per ITU-R Recc. V.431-6 Tables 1 & 2 Wavelength Classifications, what is the classification of Super High
Frequency?
ANSWER:
c. centimetric
SHF band: 3 GHz – 30 GHz
λmax = 3 x 108 / 3 x 109 = 0.1 m = 100 cm
λmin = 3 x 108 / 30 x 109 = 0.01 m = 1 cm
SHF band wavelength classification is ranging from 1 cm to 100 cm. Therefore it is centimetric wave.

QUESTION:
What is the critical frequency of a layer if the maximum value of electron density is 2 x 10 6 per cm3?
ANSWER:
c. 13 MHz
Nmax = 2 x 106 per cm3 = 2 x 106 x 106 per m3 = 2 x 1012 per m3
fc = 9 x sqrt (Nmax) = 9 x sqrt (2 x 1012)
fc = 12.73 MHz or 13 MHz approx.
QUESTION:
A radio communication link is to be established via the ionosphere. The maximum virtual height of the layer is 110
km. at the midpoint of the path and the critical frequency is 4 MHz. If the distance between the radio stations is 500
km, what is the suitable value for the optimum working frequency? Use flat terrain analysis.
ANSWER:
c. 8.4 MHz
For flat terrain analysis, tan i = d/2hv
i = tan-1 [d/2hv] = tan-1 [500/2(110)] = tan-1 [2.273] = 66.25° angle of incidence
MUF = fc x sec i = fc / cos i = 4 / cos 66.25° = 4 / 0.40275 = 9.932 MHz via Secant Law
OWF = 0.85 x MUF = 0.85 (9.932) = 8.4422 MHz or 8.4 MHz approx.
QUESTION:
The power density is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. This law is known as…

QUESTION:
The efficiency of an antenna is 82 %. Its radiation resistance is 30 Ω. What is the value of its loss resistance?
ANSWER:
d. 6.58 Ω
η = Rd/(Rd + Rloss)
0.82 = 30/(30 + Rloss)
0.82 (30 + Rloss) = 30 = 24.6 + 0.82 Rloss
Rloss = (30 – 24.6) / 0.82 = 6.5854 Ω or 6.58 Ω approx.

QUESTION:
What is the total radio horizon distance between an 80 ft transmitting station and a 20 ft receiving station?
ANSWER:
d. 18.97 mi

dRH (TOT) = sqrt (2 x 80) + sqrt (2 x 20)
dRH (TOT) = 18.97 mi
QUESTION:
A power density of 1.57 x 10-4 W/m2 is measured 50 meters from a test antenna whose directive gain is 2.15 dB.
How much power was fed into the test antenna?
ANSWER:
c. 3 W
From Inverse Square Law, PD = PR/4πd2
PR = PD x 4πd2 = 1.57 x 10-4 x 4π(50)2 = 4.93 W approx. is the radiated power
GANT = log-1 [2.15 dB/10] = 1.64
PR = PFED x GANT
PFED = PR / GANT = 4.93 / 1.64 = 3.007 W or 3 W approx.
