Function and Applications

This complete set allows microwaves to be transmitted and received. The components and equipment included allow for various experiments to be performed. These can achieve both qualitative and quantitative results. The transmitter's output is an electro-magnetic wave with wavelength in the cm range; it is picked up using a receiver. The transmitter signal, once it has reached the receiver, can be heard by a loudspeaker which is part of the scope of supply and makes the microwave set also ideal for the demonstration of wave phenomena in teacher experiments and in the lecture hall. In addition, the intensity of the signal can also be controlled.

Benefits
