Figure P37.59 shows a radio-wave transmitter and a receiver separated by a distance d and both a distance h above the ground. The receiver can receive signals both directly from the transmitter and indirectly from signals that reflect from the ground. Assume that the ground is level between the transmitter and receiver and that a 180° phase shift occurs upon reflection.
