Interference Interference is the main limitation (BW)
Twisting reduces interference Shielding further reduces interference
Cross talk (X-Talk) Near end cross talk (NEXT) Far end cross talk (FEXT)
NEXT FEXT
Cable length -- Space between pairs
NEXT and FEXT decreases with frequency f1.5 and f2

Optical fiber Loss
Absorption Scattering Connectors
Low loss : 0.2 dB/Km Color dependent
Dispersion Multi modes = different paths Refraction index is frequency (color) dependent
High bandwidth ( > 1 GHz)
Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) DWDM Data rate > TB/s in a single fiber !

Wireless communication Frequency allocation needed in shared environment
To avoid interference Spectrum is a very valuable resource
Band allocation to applications Government regulations and policies ITU coordinates between nations
Freq band: 3-30KHz Very low freq. (VLF) 30-300KHz Low freq. (LF) 300K-3MHz Medium freq. (MF) 3-30MHz High freq (HF) 30-300MHz Very high freq (VHF) 300M-3G Ultra high freq (UHF) 3-3GHz Super high freq. (SHF)

Electromagnetic waves propagationsGround waves travels along the
surface of the earth ( freq < 2 MHz)
Sky waves reflected by ionosphere Very variable – seasonal
Angle and loss of reflection Freq < 30 MHz
Line of sight (LOS) No reflection or refraction
Non Line of sight Local reflections/refractions

Satellite systems LEOs
Lower power Smaller delay Need many satellites
Shift towards LEOs in 1990 Global domination Compete with cellular systems Failed miserably (Iridium )
Big, power hungry mobile terminals
Global Positioning System (GPS) Satellite signals used to pinpoint location Popular in cars, cell phones, and navigation devices
Natural area for satellite systems is broadcasting Now operate in 12GHz band 100s of TV and radio channels All over the world
