QUESTION:
What is the wavelength of a radio signal travelling at a frequency of 220 MHz in a coaxial line having Teflon foam as its
dielectric, εr = 2?
ANSWER:
c. 0.96 m
SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):
c = 3 x 108 m/sec = 300 x 106 m/sec
velocity factor vf = 1 / sqrt (εr) = 1 / sqrt (2) = 0.707 = vP / c
Therefore the velocity of the radio signal in the coaxial line is …
vP = 0.707c = 0.707 (300 x 106) = 212,132,034.36 m/sec (or 212 x 106 m/sec approx.)
so that the wavelength of the signal is …
λ = vP / f = 212 x 106 / 220 x 106 = 0.963636… m or 0.96 m approx.
QUESTION:
What is the angle of refraction in a Teflon (εr2 = 2) medium of a radio wave from air (εr1 = 1.0) if its angle of incidence is
45°?
ANSWER:
d. 30°
SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):
Using Snell’s Law…
Sqrt (εr1) sin θi = Sqrt (εr2) sin θr
Sqrt (1) sin 45° = Sqrt (2) sin θr
θr = sin-1 [(Sqrt (1) sin 45°) / Sqrt (2)] = sin-1 (0.5) = 30°
QUESTION:

layer during sky wave propagation particularly in AM and SW radio broadcasting.
QUESTION:
As per ITU-R Recc. V.431-6 Tables 1 & 2 Wavelength Classifications, what is the classification of Super High Frequency?
ANSWER:
c. centimetric
SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):
SHF band: 3 GHz – 30 GHz
λmax = 3 x 108 / 3 x 109 = 0.1 m = 100 cm
λmin = 3 x 108 / 30 x 109 = 0.01 m = 1 cm
SHF band wavelength classification is ranging from 1 cm to 100 cm. Therefore it is centimetric wave.

QUESTION:
What is the critical frequency of a layer if the maximum value of electron density is 2 x 10 6 per cm3?
ANSWER:
c. 13 MHz
SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):
Nmax = 2 x 106 per cm3 = 2 x 106 x 106 per m3 = 2 x 1012 per m3
fc = 9 x sqrt (Nmax) = 9 x sqrt (2 x 1012)
fc = 12.73 MHz or 13 MHz approx.
QUESTION:
A radio communication link is to be established via the ionosphere. The maximum virtual height of the layer is 110 km. at
the midpoint of the path and the critical frequency is 4 MHz. If the distance between the radio stations is 500 km, what is
the suitable value for the optimum working frequency? Use flat terrain analysis.
ANSWER:
c. 8.4 MHz
SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):
For flat terrain analysis, tan i = d/2hv
i = tan-1 [d/2hv] = tan-1 [500/2(110)] = tan-1 [2.273] = 66.25° angle of incidence
MUF = fc x sec i = fc / cos i = 4 / cos 66.25° = 4 / 0.40275 = 9.932 MHz via Secant Law
OWF = 0.85 x MUF = 0.85 (9.932) = 8.4422 MHz or 8.4 MHz approx.
QUESTION:
The power density is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. This law is known as…
ANSWER:
c. Inverse Square law
QUESTION:

ANSWER:
b. Radiation Pattern
QUESTION:
The efficiency of an antenna is 82 %. Its radiation resistance is 30 Ω. What is the value of its loss resistance?
ANSWER:
d. 6.58 Ω
SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):
η = Rd/(Rd + Rloss)
0.82 = 30/(30 + Rloss)
0.82 (30 + Rloss) = 30 = 24.6 + 0.82 Rloss
Rloss = (30 – 24.6) / 0.82 = 6.5854 Ω or 6.58 Ω approx.

QUESTION:
A radio station operates at 11 meter wavelength. What is the designated band of station’s frequency?
ANSWER:
b. HF
SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):
c = 3 x 108 m/sec

f = 3 x 108 / 11 = 27 MHz approx., which is within 3 – 30 MHz range designated as HF band
QUESTION:
What is the total radio horizon distance between an 80 ft transmitting station and a 20 ft receiving station?
ANSWER:
d. 18.97 mi
SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):

dRH (TOT) = sqrt (2 x 80) + sqrt (2 x 20)
dRH (TOT) = 18.97 mi
QUESTION:
A power density of 1.57 x 10-4 W/m2 is measured 50 meters from a test antenna whose directive gain is 2.15 dB. How
much power was fed into the test antenna?
ANSWER:

SOLUTION (IF PROBLEM SOLVING):
From Inverse Square Law, PD = PR/4πd2
PR = PD x 4πd2 = 1.57 x 10-4 x 4π(50)2 = 4.93 W approx. is the radiated power
GANT = log-1 [2.15 dB/10] = 1.64
PR = PFED x GANT
PFED = PR / GANT = 4.93 / 1.64 = 3.007 W or 3 W approx.
