HOW WI-FI WOULD LOOK IF WE COULD SEE IT.!
Wi-Fi is a form of electromagnetic field transmitted as waves. The electromagnetic waves consist of electric and magnetic waves travelling perpendicular to each other. Its in a range of frequency that the human eye can't detect
An idealized Wi-Fi data transmitted over a band that is divided into different sub-channels, which are shown in various colours.Wi-fi fields are usually spherical (like the one) or ellipsoidal.The crest of Wi-Fi waves are understood by computers as 1. The troughs are equivalent to a 0.
Ultimately, these chains of 1s and 0s form an intricate pattern that is then translated into the audio, video and data that make up websites.Wi-fi waves travel through space as rapid, data encoded waves.A freeze frame of these pulses would show that the pulses are about 6 inches apart (as shown).
Wi-Fi waves are three to six inches from crest to crest- not as long as radio waves, but definitely not as short or as harmful as microwaves.
Objects such as trees can obstruct the signal such that it has to be augmented by multiple wi-fi routers placed in different positions.Routers, instead of sending out a single wave, take a range of wavelengths, chop them up and transmit them simultaneously. The average home Wi-Fi signal can project up to 30 feet. They can pierce through walls easily, but water is hindrance. Plants can sometimes impede Wi-Fi signals too. The Wi-Fi that is available in public spaces is much more powerful and can transmit signals up to 150 feet.
Wi-fi routers affixed to buildings, lamp posts and other object create a circular data field around them. These antenna have an omnidirectional signal that extends equally in all directions.
Which means that even though we can never see them, we are surrounded by these waves of data all the time. And since there is increasing demand among consumers for more connectivity, the amount of data in the air will just keep increasing. Consumers want access to more data and higher speeds. But there is a limited amount of space on the electromagnetic spectrum and tech companies are fighting for spots.
