Question
Explain LOS mode of communication.

Answer

LOS communication ie. Line of Sight communication : The radio waves of frequency greater that 30 MHz are called space waves. The transmission of these waves from transmitting antenna to receiving antenna is called space wave propagation. In this mode of transmission these waves are transmitted horizontally. This mode of transmission is called Line of Sight (LOS) mode of transmission.
