Differences between microwave tower and transmission line tower
Answers
Microwave Communication Tower:
Microwave communication tower is a tall building like design for parabolic antenna. Which is especially used for receiving and sending microwave signals.it has the same stricter as the other communication tower only difference they had the two types of radio masts lies in what kind of antenna they support.
The Transmission Line Tower:
The transmission line tower is a tall structured designed to support the electricity conductor high up the sky for electric power for transmission (sending and receiving signals). Most people call it ironman because of its structure.
Transmission tower lines:
Transmission tower lines is pair of electrical conductors carrying an electrical signal from one place to another.
Coaxial cable and twisted pair cable are examples where two conductors have inductance per unit length which can calculate from their size and shape.
They have capacitance per unit length which can be calculated from dielectric constant of insulation.
Earlier in cable-making there will be current leaking through insulation but modern cables such leakage is negligible.
Electrical resistance of conductors however is important because it increases with frequency.
Magnetic fields generated by high-frequency currents drive those currents to outer edge of conductor that carries them so higher the frequency thinner the layer of metal available to carry current and higher the effective resistance of the cable.
Microwave Tower:
Microwave transmission in atmosphere can only take place when there is direct line of sight between sender's and receiver's antenna.
Microwave transmission towers are intact with antennas pointing in different directions actually those points at different microwave transmission towers.
Absorption of microwaves in atmosphere means there is very little interference between microwave towers.
