Correct Answer - A
The range of line-of-sight communication between two antennas is given by
`v=sqrt(2Rh_(T))+sqrt(2Rh_(R))`
Given `h_(T)+h_(R)=h` and let `h_(T)=H`, then `h_(R)=h-H`
`therefore r=sqrt(2R)[sqrt(H)+sqrt(h-H)]`
For r to be maximum,
`(dr)/(dH)=sqrt(2R)[(1)/(2sqrt(H))+(1)/(2sqrt(h-H)(-1))]=0`
or `(1)/(2sqrt(H))-(1)/(2sqrt(h-H))=0` or `H=h-H` or `H=(h)/(2)`
