line-of-sight wave direct wave Direct and indirect waves.An electromagnetic wave that travels directly from a transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna along a straight line. Direct waves are responsible for part, but not all, of the signal propagation between two antennae when a sight line connecting the antennae lies above the ground. The surface (ground) wave and the reflected wave also contribute to the overall signal at the receiving antenna. Also called a line-of-sight wave or a space wave, it is prevalent in frequencies above 30 MHz. |
