Absorption Reflection
RF signal passing through the obstruction will be Reflection - occurs when signal encounters a
absorbed and attenuated
Different materials of obstruction have different
surface that __________ relative to the
degree of RF absorption wavelength of the signal

Scattering Refraction
Refraction – Bending of RF signal as it passes through a medium
Scattering – occurs when incoming signal hits with a different __________, therefore causing of the direction of
wave to change
an object whose size in the order of the Three most common causes of refraction: water vapor, changes
wavelength of the signal or ________ in air ______________, changes in air pressure

Antenna Beamwidth Antenna Beamwidth
Beamwidth is the measurement of how broad or narrow the
focus of an antenna is and is measured both horizontally
and vertically
Beamwidth measures from the center, or strongest point, of
the antenna signal to each of the points along the horizontal
and vertical axes where the signal decreases by half power
(–3 dB)

Omni-directional Antenna Omni-directional Antenna
Dipole antenna is an Omni-directional antenna that High-gain omni-directional antennas offer more
is commonly used in wireless LAN horizontal coverage area, but the vertical coverage
The dipole radiates equally in all directions around area is reduced
its axis, but does not radiate along the length of the
wire itself - hence the doughnut pattern
