Frequency doubling
"Brian Howie" wrote ... In message , Dave writes "Szczepan Bialek" wrote in message ... It seems that at long distances should appear the phenomenon of frequency doubling. See: http://www.rp-photonics.com/frequency_doubling.html Is such? S* not that has been reported anywhere i have seen. this is likely because that at the low amplitudes of radio waves relative to the energies needed to create non-linear effects the medium is close enough to linear that any doubling effect is too small to see. You can get ionospheric mixing of radio waves. e.g Luxembourg Effect; so doubling is possible. I also once heard a mixing effect of the 10MHz Time signal MSF with the 60KHz time signal ,producing two sidebands at 10.060 and 9.030 MHz, but that could have been an effect at the transmitter site. Maybe WWV does the same - take a listen; it's not strong enough here. My knowledge on radio waves starts and ends on the description of the Hertz experiment. So my questions apply to the half wave dipoles. In the acoustic analogy the Hertz emitter (dipole with the two big balls on its ends) works like the two monopoles halve wave apart (of course not in phase). In a few meters from it the Hertz receiver (ring with the two small balls) works only if parallel. When the receiver is parallel with the emitter the spherical wave from the upper ball push the electron to lower halve of the receiwer and the small spark jump. The frequency is the same In other orientations the electron in the ring are also moved but the voltage is equal and no sparks. But at long distances on every piece of metal acts the two alternating electric field from the two monopoles. The frequency must be doubled. Are now antennas similar to Hertz dipole? Is the frequency doubled. S* |
