Wireless is a type of network but without cable. there are several devices that we can use to transport information via wireless and this devices are called unbounded media or transmission media. It is a very useful media as it enables user to conveniently connect to the Internet anytime they want to as long as there are connection. therefore, we will move on to the type of media that it unbounded.
1) Satellite
satellite is one form of wireless device. in satellite, there are receiver and transmitter. satellite is also known as the strongest type of wireless media as it transmit information faster than any other wireless media.
UPLINK : transmisson from Earth so satellite
DOWNLINK : transmission from satellite to Earth
2) Cellular phones
Another type of wireless media is cellular telephone which is commonly used in our society nowadays. it actually works by transmitting radio waves that can be used in longer distances. normally, if we want to connect to the Internet using Wireless connection, we have to be closer to the transmitter in order to get better connection.
3) Antenna
There are two types of antenna. they are :
a) Parabolic dish
- it is normally placed on high places in order to transmit waves better.
b) Horn antenna
- it is used to receive and transmit waves.
- the horn is designed specifically for minimise any disruption of unwanted signals.
- can be used in farther distance
- transmission of waves require transmitter and receiver
- negative points : Slower
1G, 2G, 3G, 4G
