In my physics book, it mentions constructive and destructive wave
interference especially in reference to the the one-slit diffraction experiment. From reading about radiowave propagation, they also mention diffraction effects on radiowaves. To me, it sounds like with constructive interference, the wave's amplitude will have the chance of increasing more than what the source actually outputted. But I wonder if this is helpful in terms of radio communication. In reference to a single frequency transmitted, when I think about constructive interference and radiowave propagation, I keep picturing a delayed signal transmitted at time_0 and another signal transmitted at time_1 later with the same phase arriving at the receiver at the same time. In terms of AM, I would think this would be problematic. Any comments? Really, what I'm trying to understand here is: if constructive interference does any good in radiowave propagation. I was thinking that with an increase in amplitude the signal would be able to travel a little further, but the signal received may not be accurate in terms of the information it is conveying. Thanks! |
