MCQ 511 Mark
At a particular station, the TV transmission tower has a height of $100\,m$. To triple its coverage range, height of the tower should be increased to ......$m$
  • A
    $200$
  • B
    $300$
  • C
    $600$
  • $900$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$900$
d
Let $d$ be range

$d ^{2}=( h + R )^{2}- R ^{2}$

$= h ^{2}+ R ^{2}+2 RH - R ^{2}$

$d ^{2}= h ^{2}+2 Rh$

$\text { as } R \gg \gg \text { h then }$

$d \approx \sqrt{2 Rh } . \ldots . \text { (1) }$

Now, if coverage is to be increased $3$ times

$3 d =\sqrt{2 Rh ^{\prime}} \ldots \text {. (2) }$

Divide $2$ and $1 \frac{3 d }{ d }=\sqrt{\frac{2 R h^{\prime}}{2 R h}}$

$9=\frac{ h ^{\prime}}{ h }$

$9\,h = h \text { ' }$

$\text { If } h =100 m \text { then tower of height } 900 m \text { is } \text { required }$

We do not transmit low frequency signal to long distances because

$(a)$ The size of the antenna should be comparable to signal wavelength which is unreal solution for a signal of longer wavelength.

$(b)$ Effective power radiated by a long wavelength baseband signal would be high.

$(c)$ We want to avoid mixing up signals transmitted by different transmitter simultaneously.

$(d)$ Low frequency signal can be sent to long distances by superimposing with a high frequency wave as well.

${h}_{{T}}={h}_{{R}}=160 \ldots \text { (i) }$

${d}=\sqrt{2 {Rh}_{{T}}}+\sqrt{2 {Rh}_{{R}}}$

${d}=\sqrt{2 {R}}\left[\sqrt{{h}_{{T}}}+\sqrt{{h}_{{R}}}\right]$

${d}=\sqrt{2 {R}}[\sqrt{{x}}+\sqrt{160-{x}}]$

$\frac{{d}({d})}{{dx}}=0$

$\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{{x}}}+\frac{1(-1)}{2 \sqrt{160-{x}}}=0$

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{{x}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{160-{x}}}$

${x}=80\, {m}$

${d}_{\max }=\sqrt{2 \times 6400}\left[\sqrt{\frac{80}{1000}}+\sqrt{\frac{20}{1000}}\right]$
