Applications of Microwaves
- Bluetooth: In Bluetooth, Communication is done through Ultra high frequency (UHF) radio waves .
- Wi-Fi: In Wi-fi , data is transferred using microwave.
- Direct broadcast satellites: Since microwaves are able to pass through the atmosphere layer so communication is done through satellites
- GPS: In order to locate the positions, microwaves are used.
- FM Radio: Microwave transmitter and receiver is used to transfer information through a line to other and so form radio connection.
- Satellite T.V: Since microwaves are able to pass through the atmosphere layer so the information passes from Tv to satellite and vice versa.
Microwave Transmission
Microwave is a part of the electromagnetic Spectrum. Their frequency ranges from 300 MHz to 300 GHz, which corresponds to wavelengths of 1 mm to 30 cm. Sending and receiving information by microwaves is known as Microwave Transmission. Microwaves come under Unguided or wireless transmission media.
The repeaters form a network known as a microwave relay network. But these systems are used only in special roles as they are very expensive. These technologies such as wireless networks, and broadcast satellites broadcast television and radio directly into consumers’ houses. Microwaves can also be used for wireless power transmission.
