An RF signal sometimes bends as it passes through some material other than free space. What is the term that describes this behavior?
An RF signal sometimes bends as it passes through some material other than free space. What is the term that describes this behavior?
Refraction is the term that describes the bending of an RF signal as it passes through a medium other than free space. This phenomenon occurs because the signal changes speed when it enters a medium with a different density, causing a change in direction.
A. Refraction is correct
A. Refraction is the bending of the path of a light wave as it passes from one material into another material.
A. Refraction. CHAPTER 2 - PAGE 65 (Official Study Guide) "REFRACTION occurs when an RF signal changes speed and is bent while moving through media of different densities."
A. Refraction - no mention of warping in as an RF behavior in the course material
B. Refraction is the bending of the path of a light wave as it passes from one material into another material.
