Radio communication system | A radio communication system is composed of several communications subsystems that give exterior communications capabilities. |
Sky wave or skip refers to the propagation of radio waves reflected or refracted back toward Earth from the ionosphere, an electrically charged layer of the upper atmosphere.
Sky wave propagation can be used to communicate beyond the horizon, at intercontinental distances. It is mostly used in the shortwave frequency bands.
