    Appendix A: Wireless Technology Basics 31 (38) Wireless Technology Basics Wireless technology is based on the propagation and reception of electromagnetic waves. These waves respond in different ways in terms of propagation, dispersion, diffraction and re- flection depending on their frequency and the medium in which they are travelling. To enable communication there should optimally be an unobstructed line of sight between the antennas of the devices.
