Teamwork has given us a one-stop solution that encompasses many of our Project
Management needs.It was the central place for all our files planning our Project tracking
progress and its more simple and intuitive project for us.It helps us to keep everything on
track and deliver optimal results.
Working together made our all concepts more clear also helped us to share our knowledge as
well as gain knowledge which was one of the best experience .
Thanks to our project as it help us to make things more interesting.

Unguided Media
An unguided transmission transmits the electromagnetic waves without using any physical
medium. Therefore it is also known as wireless transmission In unguided media, air is the media
through which the electromagnetic energy can flow easily.
Types of unguided media:
Radio waves
Microwaves
Satellite
Infrared
Radio waves:
Radio waves have frequencies between 10 kHz and 1GHz.
Radio waves for the most part,are omni directional.
This means that the sending and receiving antennas do not have to be aligned.
Radio waves,particularly those waves that propagate in the sky mode,can travel long distances.
This makes radio waves a good candidate for long distance broadcasting such as AM radio.
Speed: electromagnetic waves of any kind are the fastest things in the universe.
Signal-to-noise ratio: radio waves can be used to communicate with deep space probes. Visible or
infrared radiation is not up to the task because such a communication system would have to outshine the
sun.
High power is readily available: The magneto in a microwave oven is inexpensive and can produce about 1
kW of output. Long wave broadcast and communications transmitters have been built that produce over a
million Watts. There are frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum, such as the “tera Hertz gap,”
where it is not (yet) feasible to produce this kind of power.
Can penetrate obstacles that are opaque to visible light and infrared.
Low photon energy is safer for living beings than ultraviolet radiation or x-rays.
Microwaves:
Electromagnetic waves having frequencies between 1 and 300 GHz are called microwaves.
Microwaves are unidirectional.
When an antenna transmits microwave waves, they can be narrowly focused.
This means that the sending and receiving antennas need to be aligned.
A pair of antennas can be aligned without interfering with another pair of aligned antennas.
Microwave propagation is line-of-sight.
Since the towers with the mounted antennas need to be in direct sight of each other, towers that are far
apart need to be very tall.
Repeaters are often needed for long distance communication.
The microwave band is relatively wide, almost 299 GHz.
Therefore wider sub bands can be assigned, and a high data rate is possible.
Advantages :
Support larger band with and hence more information is transmitted.
More antenna gain is possible.
Higher data rates are transmitted as the band with is more.
Antenna size gets reduced, as the frequencies are higher.
Low power consumption as the signals are of higher frequencies.
Satellite:
The process of satellite communication begins at an earth station.
Here an installation is designed to transmit and receive signals from a satellite in orbit around the earth.
Earth stations send information to satellites in the form of high powered, high frequency (GHz range)
signals.
The satellites receive and re transmit the signals back to earth where they are received by other earth
stations in the coverage area of the satellite.
The transmission system from the earth station to the satellite through a channel is called the uplink.
The system from the satellite to the earth station through the channel is called the downlink.
Two stations on earth want to communicate through radio broadcast but are too far away to use
conventional means.
The two stations can use a relay station for their communication. One earth station transmits the signal
to the satellite.
Advantages :
It id used for mobile and wireless communication applications independent of location .
It covers wide area of the earth hence entire country or region can be covered with just one satellite .
It provides wider bandwidth based on SCPC or MCPC allocation types.
Infrared:
Infrared waves, with frequencies from 300 GHz to 400 THz (wavelengths from 1 mm to
770 NM), can be used for short-range communication.
Infrared waves, having high frequencies, cannot penetrate walls.
When we use our infrared remote control, we do not interfere with the use of the remote
by our neighbors.
However, this same characteristic makes infrared signals useless for long-range
communication.
In addition, we cannot use infrared waves outside a building because the sun's rays
contain infrared waves that can interfere with the communication.
Advantages:
Lower extinction. Interstellar extinction is a very steep function of wavelength. ...
The ability to see warm (as opposed to hot) objects. ...
Better spatial resolution under seeing-limited conditions. ...
Unique phenomena. ...
Red-shifted spectral features.
