    Data Transmitter
AI Thread Summary
Transmitters capable of sending data over 1km typically require an output power of about one watt and a suitable data input. However, operating such transmitters without a license is illegal in most countries, leading to significant penalties. For those in remote areas, VHF is recommended to stay within line of sight. Certain frequencies, like Citizens Band (27 MHz) and Wireless networking frequencies (2400 MHz), may not require a license in some regions, but users must avoid interference and adhere to power limitations. Consulting local Radio Frequency authorities is advised to explore legal options for long-distance data transmission.

i want to ask what transmitter model can send the data over 1km?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Any transmitter that has an output power of about a watt will do this provided it has a suitable input for data.

However, all countries have laws that make this illegal without a licence. Penalties can cost you a lot of money or see you rot in jail.

So, unless you live on a remote island, you should check on the local laws before doing this. If you do live on a remote island, you should use VHF to avoid transmitting beyond line of sight.

Having said all that, there are certain frequencies in some countries that you could use to do this. Citizens Band (27 MHz) , model remote control bands (71 MHz) and Wireless networking frequencies (2400 MHz) may not need a license in some countries. Even then, there is an obligation to not interfere with other users on these bands and there may be power limitations.

Talk to the people at the Radio Frequency control authority in your city and ask if there is a legal way of doing what you want to do.

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
