communications
What type of communications provide data and voice transmissions when ships are over the
visible horizon? - Answer Long-range communications
What is reflection? - Answer Radio waves bouncing off of flat surfaces
, What is propagation? - Answer The way that radio waves move through the air
What are the three highest frequency ranges used in Naval communications? - Answer UHF
(300 MHz to 3GHz) easily jammed/ high mobility

What is synchronous signal data? - Answer Data transmitted at a rate determined by an
associated clock. It's a fast and reliable method of data transfer when you need to know if the
message was received.
What is asynchronous signal data? - Answer Data transmitted without an associated clock,
usually during low-speed transmissions.
Digital data is represented by... - Answer 1's and 0's

What is a SAR? - Answer SAR stands for Satellite Access Request. It requests authorization for
satellite access needed to complete an operation.
What is a SAA? - Answer SAA stands for Satellite Access Authorization. It normally authorizes
access to a satellite.
What is the purpose of OPTASK COMMs? - Answer It provides communications SATCOM
requirements for ships and battlegroups to use.
What defines the communications specifications for a ship? - Answer COMMPLAN
