==== Absorption and reflection ====
Some materials cause [[Absorption (electromagnetic radiation)|absorption]] of electromagnetic waves, preventing it from reaching the receiver, in other cases, particularly with metallic or conductive materials reflection occurs. This can cause dead zones where no reception is available. Aluminium foiled thermal isolation in modern homes can easily reduce indoor mobile signals by 10&nbsp;dB frequently leading to complaints about the bad reception of long-distance rural cell signals.
