    There are different modes of communication but for the military, theirs is even more modified, emphasized, and developed. If anything goes wrong with the communication systems, they are all risking their lives too much. They need backup in worse case scenarios but if they are not able to communicate exactly where they are and where the enemies are, this will indicate failure in operations, which will cause numerous deaths.

    Communication in the field with other bases can be done using radio. A military antenna mast is not easy to manufacture. There are so many considerations like the cost of production including the raw materials and labor. On the other hand, the size, bandwidth, and capacity to deter radio signal interferences are notable considerations as well.

    The RF antenna is very common but users tend to complain on how heavy and big they are. They are often inconvenient to bring in battle areas because the men still have to bring heavy loads of bullets, ammunitions, and firearms. Hence, manufacturers and designers are having a dilemma regarding how they can actually resize it into smaller versions, as requested.

    In the battle grounds, where the tension is very high, the men still need to bring along with them antennas that are too heavy and are too tall they overtake the height of a man. Hence, the inconvenience will cause the life of the one assigned to carry it. Again, according to the physics explained by the experts, the taller the material is, the better the reception.

    Unfortunately, there is still no known device and innovation of antennas that are handier and least heavy. If there already are, it would be much easier for the army to carry them while on the battlefield or wherever they may be assigned. But the professionals are on their way as they are continuously finding ways to make this possible.

    Many are suggesting to use the cell phone innovation instead to use in war areas. This could be the answer of the plea of the soldiers to have a really small and handy antenna to use for connecting with their comrades. But experts say that this is not as easy as it seems. A less scientific explanation that will best describe the reason why these cannot be used is that it is susceptible to many kinds of interferences.

    The conditions in war stricken areas are often very negative. Network signals which are land based are sometimes limited and often, they have been destroyed by war. Thus, there is a need for phones to have a more extensive system like radio frequencies.

    Phones are prone to interferences in radio and signal. And if there are interferences, it is very difficult to reach the other side of the line, which in military operations, is the base. Moreover, if the base is not reached, they will not be able to report injured men in the battle.

    Also, satellite communications are very efficient. These can be used in information dissemination quicker and more efficiently. These are the ones being used by armies to report the locations of enemies using communication codes.
