Lower: 40 milliwatts
Middle: 200 milliwatts Upper: 800 milliwatts |
|
_____ is linked to the linear milliwatts scale, making it an absolute reference of power.
|
dBm
|
|
_____ is used to reference the increase in power in a certain direction by an antenna.
|
dBi
|
|
What does the i stand for in dBi?
|
isotropic
|
|
A __________ is a theoretical transmitter that propagates RF energy in all directions.
|
isotropic radiator
|
|
_____ references the orientation of the electric field of the electromagnetic wave in relation to the earth.
|
Polarization
|
|
What orientations can polarization be?
|
vertical
horizontal angled circular (left or right handed) |
|
What generally determines the polarization of the radiated wave?
|
the physical orientation of the antenna
|
|
What can mismatched polarizations cause?
|
up to a 3 dB signal strength reduction at the receiver
|
|
_____ antennas propagate RF waves perpendicular to the antenna itself.
|
Omni-directional
|
|
What are some common form factors of semi-directional antenna?
And what gain do they offer? |
patch
panel yagi between 8-20 dBi |
|
What are some common form factors of highly directional antenna?
And what gain do they offer |
parabolic dish
grid up to 30 dBi |
|
In _____ systems the carrier changes frequency or hops according to a predefined pseudo-random sequence.
|
Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS)
|
|
How often do Bluetooth devices hop?
|
1600 times per second
|
|
In _____ systems the carrier frequency doesn't change; instead, redundant information is added to the signal prior to transmission (causing the signal to take up more bandwidth) and removed from the signal upon reception.
|
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)
|
|
_____ achieves high data rates by squeezing a large number of communication channels into a given frequency band. This is achieved by placing adjacent channels very precisely in frequency space in such a way that the channels' harmonics exactly cancel each other out effectively leaving only the fundamental signals.
|
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)
|
