of short- and open-circuited stubs. This problem is analytically
demonstrated on electrically short stubs. Results obtained
using the exact and approximate expressions are compared
with numerical solutions that are generated by various circuit

coils in 2007 . Recently in 2008, Intel reproduced the MIT
group’s experiment by wirelessly powering a light bulb with
75% efficiency at a shorter distance
microwave link
microwave link is a communications system that uses a beam
of radio waves in the microwave frequency range to transmit
video, audio, or data between two locations, which can be
from just a few feet or meters to several miles or kilometers
apart. Microwave links are commonly used by television
broadcasters to transmit programmers across a country, for
instance, or from an outside broadcast back to a studio. Mobile
units can be camera mounted, allowing cameras the freedom
to move around without trailing cables. These are often seen
on the touchlines of sports fields on Stead cam systems.

Transmitting antenna
Microwave transmission relies on three key Microwaves are widely used for point to point
elements: communications because their small wavelength allows
Use of radio frequency to achieve the conveniently sized antennas to direct them in narrow beams,
transmissions (operating between 1Ghz to which can be pointed directly at the receiving antenna. This
170Ghz allows nearby microwave equipment to use the same
Clear line-of-sight with no obstacles in the way frequencies without interfering with each other, as lower
Regular relay stations required due to line of site frequency radio waves do. Another advantage is that the high
and cost considerations frequency of microwave
gives the microwave band a very large information carrying
capacity; the microwave band has a bandwidth 30 times that
of all the rest of the radio spectrum below it. A disadvantage is
that microwaves are limited to line of sight propagation; they
cannot pass around hills or mountains as lower frequency
radio waves can. Microwave radio transmission is commonly
used in point to point communication systems on the surface
of the Earth, in satellite communications, and in deep space
radio communications. Other parts of the microwave radio
band are used for radars, radio navigation systems, sensor
systems, and radio astronomy
