|
The Navy began using HIGH FREQUENCIES for radio communications around World War I. One of the prominent features of high-frequency - long-distance communications
|
|
|
Discuss VHF - Very High Frequency.
|
Known as line-of-sight transmission bands.
|
|
|
Discuss UHF - Ultra High Frequency.
|
Because this is line-of-sight communications, the transmitting antenna is in a direct line with the receiving antenna and not over the horizon.
|

VHF - Very High Frequency
|
|
|
What radio frequency is defined by the following range:
300 Mhz – 3 Ghz |
UHF - Ultra High Frequency
|
|
|
Discuss the factors that affect the capabilities of radio communications for:
HF (High Frequency) |
Successful transmission of HF signals over a long distance is dependent upon refraction of radio waves by layers of the ionosphere. The height and density of these layers is formed mainly by ultraviolet radiation from the sun. They vary significantly with the time of day, season of the year, and the eleven-year cycle of sunspot activity.
|
|
|
Discuss the factors that affect the capabilities of radio communications for:
VHF (Very High Frequency) UHF (Ultra High Frequency) |
In the VHF and UHF bands, certain atmospheric and ionospheric conditions can also cause the normal line-of-sight range to be extended. Frequencies at the lower end of this band are capable of overcoming the shielding effects of hills and structures to some degree; but as the frequency is increased, the problem becomes more pronounced.

2. Warning/Intercep zone (1,000 yds) - Security forces must classify contacts in the warning zone, and warn all unknown/hostile contacts in the warning zone. 3. Threat/React zone (500 yds) - The threat zone is the innermost layer of defense in depth, no hostile contacts should be allowed in the threat zone. ** Zone size and location are dependent upon, host nation restriction, geography, threat areas, capabilities of US forces, and proximity of targets. |
|
|
Discuss Security Boat Tactics.
- General - Single-Boat Defense - Multiple-Boat Defense |
The principle tast of securtiy forces, with respect to waterborne vessels, is to determine hostile intent as far from the HVA as possible.
Single- The security boat should maintain static position; close to the HVA. The boat's tast is to assess all craft near the HVA and only react to vessels that are deemed potential threats. Multi - When two or more security boats are on patrol, sectors must be assigned. Boats will randomly patrol near the outer edge of the warning zone sectors and assess all vessels in their vicinity. |
