Electromagnetic Waves in Electrical Engineering: Uses

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

Electromagnetic (EM) waves are essential in Electrical Engineering (EE) primarily for wireless communications, including FM radio, cellular networks, television, satellite communications, and wireless remote controls. They facilitate the transmission of information through electrical and magnetic disturbances across distances. Without EM waves, signal processing and communication in EE would be significantly hindered. Additionally, EM waves play a crucial role in regular AC transmission through wires and waveguides.

What are the Electromagnetic Waves used for in Electrical Engineering?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
The EM waves are mainly used for wireless communications in EE. Examples include FM radio, cellular network in mobile, TV, satellite communications, wireless remote controls, etc.

EM waves is used as a means to transmit information in the form of electrical and magnetic diturbances in the air through distances. Without EM waves in EE applications, signal processing and communications would not be so easy.

Very much also for regular AC transmission through wires and waveguides.
 
Do you wish to know what kinds of things undergo oscillitory motion?
