Propagation phenomena

Propagation phenomena refer to the way waves—such as light, sound, or radio signals—travel through different environments. These waves spread out or change as they move, influenced by things like obstacles, the medium they're passing through (air, water, solid), and their frequency. For example, radio signals can bounce off buildings or bend around hills, affecting how well they reach receivers. Understanding propagation helps us improve communication systems, predict signal strength, and diagnose issues in environmental settings. It’s the study of how waves move and change in various conditions, ensuring effective transfer of energy or information across distances.
