    Assertion: Microwave communication is preferred over optical communication. Reason: Microwaves provide large number of channels and band width compared to optical signals.

    A)  1                            

    B)        2                            

    C)        3                            

    D)        4

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Microwaves are electromagnetic waves with wavelength as longer than those of infrared light but relatively short from radio waves. The microwave range includes ultra high frequency   \[(0.3-3\text{ }GHz)\], super high frequency \[(3-30\text{ }GHz)\]and extremely high frequency \[(30-300\text{ }GHz)\]signals. While optical communication is any form of telecommunication that uses light as the transmission medium. Hence, its channels and bandwidth are lesser than microwave communication.
