Best Answer

With the use of cell phones and mobile internet capable devices it has been necessary to create processes that allow radios to receive signals even when they are not in line with a tower. This process that most commonly allows for this is the Frequency Division Multiple Access also know as the FDMA.

How about the same processes that allow you to hear a speaker or a noise even

when there is no line of sight between you and the source of the sound ?

Those are the properties of waves that allow them to penetrate (albeit with some loss),

refract, and diffract, either through or around obstacles.

What are two way radios used for?

Two way radios are used to transmit and receive. What I mean by that is a two way radio allows two people to talk to each with similar devices on the same radio frequency. It's rather unique! One (the operator) can talk, and the other listen. This device allows police officers, detectives, and many other jobs easier.


How people communicate using radios?

Morris code, tele-graph, light signals on ships.


Were radios invented in 1914?

The FM radio was invented in 1933. It was invented by the inventor Edwin Howard Armstrong. He invented the frequency that allows radios to work.


How does a foxhole radio work?

If i remember correctly it uses the graphite in a pencil as a crystal similar to that of other crystal radios.


What frequency do two way radio use?

They are not always different. If the communication is between two radios directly, only one frequency is used. This is called simplex operation. It works fine because only one radio is transmitting at a time. When two radios communicate through a repeater to increase the distance, the repeater must simultaneously receive from one radio while retransmitting the signal to the other radio. A single frequency would not work because the repeater would only hear its own output. So, two frequencies are used. This is called duplex operation. The above information is partially incorrect. Simplex and duplex do not refer to how many frequencies are used. They refer to the way traffic (data and voice) are sent and received. The reason for different receive and transmit frequencies is for retransmitting (like stated above) and for satellite communications. Satellites receive on one frequency, then modify, amplify, and retransmit the signal on a different frequency to prevent bleedover.

What do two way radios do function wise?

Two way radios can both transmit and receive signals. It uses two different radio frequencies to carry the two conversations simultaneously.


Can military radios broadcast signals that household radios can pick up on FM?

They could if they wanted to. But if they have military-type information to swap, thenthey really have no desire to do it in the FM commercial broadcast band at frequenciesbetween 88 and 108 MHz, where household radios are equipped to receive.


Do computers use radio waves?

Absolutely. Computing is highly integrated into radio frequency (RF) type communications. Examples of RF integration include Bluetooth, WiFi, and RF peripherals such as the mouse and keyboard.

What was used to broadcast from the moon during the Apollo 11 mission?

The LM had an antenna array that could beam signals to Earth. When the astronauts were out on EVA, their suits had radios which beamed signals to the LM, which in turn sent the signals to Earth. The LM acted as relay between the Earth and the suit radios.


Who or what exactly is the Arc 5?

An Arc 5 is a set of two way radios which is used by the Navy. It is used to send and receive Morse code signals. They were used quite often during World War II.


Is the radio a bad thing or a good thing?

I cannot admit if the radio is a good thing or bad thing but here are some ideas: Radios can cause radiation poisoning and cancer from radiation, radios helps us communicate faster and receive signals faster and they cannot prevent communication errors from happening. BY: Cloverine
