Quelle couche ionosphérique est la moins utile pour les communications à longues distances par ondes radio?

  1. ALa couche E
  2. BLa couche
  3. CLa couche F2
  4. DLa couche F1

Correct answer: B — La couche. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

The D region sits lowest in the ionosphere and acts like a sponge that absorbs radio signals rather than bouncing them back to Earth, making it useless for long-distance communication. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.

Radio wave propagation is section B-007 of the Basic exam: How signals travel: the ionosphere and its layers, skip, ground wave, sporadic E, and which bands work when.
