What is the effect of raising both antennas on a line of sight path?

  • A.The frequency at which the link operates may be raised
  • B.The rain attenuation on the path is reduced significantly
  • C.The horizon extends and the clearance improves
  • D.The path loss falls in proportion to the height increase

Answer: C

Additional height pushes the horizon further and lifts the ray away from obstacles, improving clearance and often removing a ground reflection. Free space loss depends on distance rather than height, so it does not fall, and rain and frequency are unaffected. The two ray height gain that applies to low mobile antennas is a different regime. Knowing which regime a path is in decides whether height buys signal or merely clearance.
