this depends on if you are using amplitude modulated (am) or frequency modulated (FM) waves. am waves have a fixed frequency, and so can be sent a lot further, but do not give good signal quality because the amplitude carries the data and therefore it is affected badly by interference. FM waves have a constant amplitude, meaning they have better quality, but the frequency contains the data, meaning it changes all the time and therefore cannot be used for very long distances

How does attenuation vary with frequency in the context of signal transmission?

Attenuation refers to the decrease in signal strength as it travels through a medium. In signal transmission, attenuation typically increases with frequency. This means that higher frequency signals are more likely to lose strength and degrade as they travel over a distance.


What is the difference between FM and PM?
