Question

What are the limitations of sending information using electromagnetic waves?

Answer 1

Well, the range is more limited. Let's say if you tried listening to Denver radio all the way in Texas, you wouldn't be able to listen to it.

Another one is that other electromagnetic waves with similar frequencies can interfere with each other

Answer 2

Answer:

Communication refers to the process of conducting and obtaining information in the form of signals. The electromagnetic waves are used by the high technology communications systems, and there are different kinds of electromagnetic waves, which are utilized like microwaves, infrared, radio waves, and others.  

However, there are some of the limitations with the applications of electromagnetic waves:  

1. Due to a confined number of broadcast frequencies, the application of transmitters must be restricted in a certain manner or they will lead to interference.  

2. The physical features like buildings and mountains can interfere or prevent certain transmissions.  

3. In the air, the signals can be misleaded due to atmospheric conditions and the signals from the space are at certain occasions get distorted by solar activity.
