  2. Two-ray ground-reflection model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-ray_ground-reflection...

    The two-rays ground-reflection model is a multipath radio propagation model which predicts the path losses between a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna when they are in line of sight (LOS). Generally, the two antenna each have different height. The received signal having two components, the LOS component and the reflection component ...

  3. Communications system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communications_system

    A duplex communication system is a system composed of two connected parties or devices which can communicate with one another in both directions. The term duplex is used when describing communication between two parties or devices. Duplex systems are employed in nearly all communications networks, either to allow for a communication "two-way ...

  4. Source–message–channel–receiver model of communication

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source–message–channel...

    It was first published by David Berlo in his 1960 book The Process of Communication. It contains a detailed discussion of the four main components of communication: source, message, channel, and receiver. Source and receiver are usually distinct persons but can also be groups and, in some cases, the same entity acts both as source and receiver.

    It is produced by combining the two components in a 3:1 ratio, producing nulls at 109.5°. This ratio maximizes the directivity factor (or directivity index). [50] [51] A super-cardioid microphone is similar to a hyper-cardioid, except there is more front pickup and less rear pickup. It is produced with about a 5:3 ratio, with nulls at 126.9°.

  6. Microwave transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_transmission

    Microwave radio transmission is commonly used in point-to-point communication systems on the surface of the Earth, in satellite communications, and in deep space radio communications. Other parts of the microwave radio band are used for radars , radio navigation systems, sensor systems, and radio astronomy .

  7. Communicative ecology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communicative_ecology

    Communicative ecology is a conceptual model used in the field of media and communications research.. The model is used to analyse and represent the relationships between social interactions, discourse, and communication media and technology of individuals, collectives and networks in physical and digital environments.

  8. Shannon–Weaver model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon–Weaver_model

    The Shannon–Weaver model is one of the first models of communication. Initially published in the 1948 paper "A Mathematical Theory of Communication", it explains communication in terms of five basic components: a source, a transmitter, a channel, a receiver, and a destination. The source produces the original message.

  9. Models of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_communication

    Many models of communication include the idea that a sender encodes a message and uses a channel to transmit it to a receiver. Noise may distort the message along the way. The receiver then decodes the message and gives some form of feedback. [1] Models of communication simplify or represent the process of communication.
