Electromagnetic Spectrum Continued
Muhtasari
Every time you make a call, stream a film or use wireless internet, invisible electromagnetic waves are carrying your data through the air and along glass fibres. Different parts of the spectrum suit different jobs, and modern communications choose each one for a reason.
In this lesson you will learn how satellites, mobile phones, Bluetooth and optical fibres each use a particular band of electromagnetic radiation, and why. You will also meet digital and analogue signals and understand the real advantages that make digital signalling the modern standard.
Malengo
- Know that communication with artificial satellites is mainly by microwaves: (a) s ome satellite phones use low orbit artificial satellites (b) some satellite phones and direct broadcast satellite television use geostationary satellites
- [Supplement] Know that many important systems of communications rely on electromagnetic radiation including: (a) m obile phones (cell phones) and wireless internet use microwaves because microwaves can penetrate some walls and only require a short aerial for transmission and reception (b) Bluetooth uses radio waves because radio waves pass through walls but the signal is weakened on doing so (c) optical fibres (visible light or infrared) are used for cable television and high-speed broadband because glass is transparent to visible light and some infrared; visible light and short wavelength infrared can carry high rates of data
- [Supplement] Know the difference between a digital and analogue signal
- [Supplement] Know that a sound can be transmitted as a digital or analogue signal
- [Supplement] Explain the benefits of digital signalling including increased rate of transmission of data and increased range due to accurate signal regeneration
