(ii) Sky wave propagation : Radio waves travel skywards and if its frequency is below certain critical frequency
(typically 30 MHz). It is returned to the earth by ionosphere.
(iii) Space wave : In space wave propagation, radio waves travel in a straight line from transmitting antenna to the
recieving antenna.
Sky wave : The sky wave below critical frequency travels from the transmitting antenna to recieving antenna
via ionosphere. The ionosphere consists of layers of air molecules which have become positively charged by
removal of electrons by suns ultraviolet radiations. On striking the earth, the sky wave bounces back to the
ionosphere where it is again gradually refracted and returned earthwards as if by reflection. This continues
until it is completely attenuated.

Huygens Principle : Every point on wavefront may be considered as a source that produces secondary wavelets.
These wavelets propagate in the forward direction with a speed equal to speed of wave motion. The surface which
touches these wavelets at any later instant is the position of new wavefront, called secondary wavefront.
