Dans quelle gamme de fréquences, la propagation par diffusion météorique est-elle la plus efficace lors de communications à grandes distances?

  1. ADe 3 MHz à 10 MHz
  2. BDe 100 MHz à 150 MHz
  3. CDe 30 MHz à 100 MHz
  4. DDe 10 MHz à 30 MHz

Correct answer: C — De 30 MHz à 100 MHz. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

Meteor scatter works best between 30 MHz and 100 MHz because the ionized trails left by burning meteors are dense enough to reflect these higher frequencies back to Earth, enabling communication over hundreds of kilometres. 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.
