What is Wireless Communication ?

Transmitting voice and data using electromagnetic waves


in open space (atmosphere)

The information from the sender to the receiver is carried


over a well-defined frequency band.

Each Channel has a fixed bandwidth.

Different channels can be used to transmit information in


parallel and independently.

Wireless Communication

Electromagnetic waves
• Travel at speed of light (c = 3x108 m/s)
• Has a frequency (f) and wavelength (l)
»c = f x l
• Higher frequency means higher energy photons
• The higher the energy photon the more
penetrating is the radiation

Why Wireless Communication

• Freedom from wires.

• Mobility

• Global coverage

• Communication can reach where wiring is infeasible or


costly(e.g. hazardous areas, long distances etc.).

• Stay Connected any where any time.
