Why do you use high frequency signals for communication and why not very high frequencies?

Low, medium and high frequencies is ideal for long distance communication but it is very sensitive to QRM and QRN because only amplitude modulation can be used on this part of the RF spectrum, FM modulation is not possible, where in the higher frequencies, FM (Frequency Modulation) is a beter option but with the drawback of distance overland. VHF, UHF and UUHF can't overcome obstacles like hills, mountains and large buildings, only line of site communication can be used here, although it can be used for long distance in open space IE. in outer space, like satellite communication.


Why AM is used for long distance communication?

AM has a frequency range of 531 kHz to 1602 kHz and on the other hand FM has a frequency range between 8705 MHz to 108 MHz. If we talk about the bandwidth of AM then it is 1071 KHz and bandwidth of FM is 20.5 MHz.According to the bandwidth FM should be used for long distance transmission but it is not used for long distance but AM is used fir long distance transmissions. the answer is here.Long distance transmissions are also decided by the Spectrum of the Signal in frequency domain by doing the Fouriertransform of the Signal.If we draw the Spectrum of AM waves the we find that their is a main loop in the central part of the spectrum with a high frequency and on the left and right side of this loop their are side loop which are very smaller then the main loop. In FM information can be recover from the main loop only not from the side loops. On the other hand in AM waves all the loops in spectrum is of same size and information can be recover from all the loops.That is why AM is used for long distance transmission.Thnx -Vipin Jasoria


Why FM is used for short distance communication?

Frequency Modulation (FM) is used for short-distance communication primarily because it offers improved sound quality and resistance to noise and interference compared to amplitude modulation (AM). Its ability to maintain signal integrity over shorter distances makes it ideal for applications like local radio broadcasts, two-way radios, and personal communication devices. Additionally, FM's bandwidth allows for a more robust signal, facilitating clearer audio transmission in environments with potential signal disruption.


Why FM signal is more local and cannot be transmitted over long distance?

Since FM signals have shorter wavelength and high frequency, it is diffracted much. Therefore it is not suitable for long distance communiation.


What are the two types of wave communication used in broadcasting?

AM and FM AM=Amplitude Modulation FM=Frequency Modulation Hope this helps


What are the types of transmitters used in communication?

Transmitters used in communication can be categorized into several types, including analog and digital transmitters. Analog transmitters convert information into continuous signals, while digital transmitters encode data into discrete signals for transmission. Additionally, there are various specific types such as amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM) transmitters for radio communication, and microwave or satellite transmitters for long-distance communication. Each type is designed to suit different communication needs and technologies.


Can long distance space commucating be possible in am as well as FM?

No. They dare not for fear of the deadly FM syndrome. This is a little known but fatal disease which aliens get when they us FM cause by the very poor DJs and music played.


Advantages and disadvantages of FM transmitter?

The advantages are it travels long and far good for long distance the disadvantages are that it takes a while to transfer back


What is a wireless FM transmitter used for?

A wireless FM transmitter is used to play music files through ones FM radio through wireless connectivity. One can hook up their device and as long as it is set within the proximity of the FM transmission, it will be able to play the music.


Do radios use high or low frequencies?

Radios can use a range of frequencies, but they typically operate in the range of high frequencies, which are better for long-distance communication. AM broadcasts, for example, use lower frequencies, while FM broadcasts use higher frequencies.


Why FM is good than am in communication?

The FM signal is more amune to static in the atmosphere than AM signals.


What is FM transceiver?

An FM transceiver is a device that can both transmit and receive frequency-modulated (FM) radio signals. It is commonly used in communication systems, such as two-way radios, for clear voice communication over various distances. FM transceivers operate by modulating the frequency of a carrier wave in accordance with the audio signal, providing improved resistance to noise and interference compared to amplitude modulation (AM). They are widely used in applications ranging from amateur radio to commercial broadcasting.
