Difference between High frequency and Maximum usable frequency

High frequency vs. Maximum usable frequency

High frequency (HF) is the ITU designation for the range of radio frequency electromagnetic waves (radio waves) between 3 and 30 megahertz (MHz). In radio transmission maximum usable frequency (MUF) is the highest radio frequency that can be used for transmission between two points via reflection from the ionosphere (skywave or "skip" propagation) at a specified time, independent of transmitter power.

Similarities between High frequency and Maximum usable frequency

High frequency and Maximum usable frequency have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Critical frequency, Frequency of optimum transmission, Ionization, Ionosphere, Lowest usable high frequency, Radio propagation, Shortwave radio, Skywave.

Critical frequency

In telecommunication, the term critical frequency has the following meanings.

Frequency of optimum transmission

Frequency of optimum transmission (FOT), in the transmission of radio waves via ionospheric reflection, is the highest effective (i.e. working) frequency that is predicted to be usable for a specified path and time for 90% of the days of the month.

Ionization

Ionization or ionisation, is the process by which an atom or a molecule acquires a negative or positive charge by gaining or losing electrons to form ions, often in conjunction with other chemical changes.

Ionosphere

The ionosphere is the ionized part of Earth's upper atmosphere, from about to altitude, a region that includes the thermosphere and parts of the mesosphere and exosphere.

Lowest usable high frequency

The lowest usable high frequency (LUF), in radio transmission, is that frequency in the HF band at which the received field intensity is sufficient to provide the required signal-to-noise ratio for a specified time period, e.g., 0100 to 0200 UTC, on 90% of the undisturbed days of the month.

Radio propagation

Radio propagation is the behavior of radio waves as they travel, or are propagated, from one point to another, or into various parts of the atmosphere.

Shortwave radio

Shortwave radio is radio transmission using shortwave radio frequencies.

Skywave

In radio communication, skywave or skip refers to the propagation of radio waves reflected or refracted back toward Earth from the ionosphere, an electrically charged layer of the upper atmosphere.

High frequency and Maximum usable frequency Comparison

High frequency has 51 relations, while Maximum usable frequency has 23. As they have in common 8, the Jaccard index is 10.81% = 8 / (51 + 23).
