2. Microwave - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave

   Microwave. A telecommunications tower with a variety of dish antennas for microwave relay links on Frazier Peak, Ventura County, California. The apertures of the dishes are covered by plastic sheets (radomes) to keep out moisture. Microwave is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than other radio waves but longer than ...

3. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

   Electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum is the full range of electromagnetic radiation, organized by frequency or wavelength. The spectrum is divided into separate bands, with different names for the electromagnetic waves within each band. From low to high frequency these are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light ...

4. Microwave oven - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

   A microwave oven or simply microwave is an electric oven that heats and cooks food by exposing it to electromagnetic radiation in the microwave frequency range. [1] This induces polar molecules in the food to vibrate [ 2 ] and produce thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating .

5. Radio spectrum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum

   Radio bands. The radio spectrum is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum with frequencies from 3 Hz to 3,000 GHz (3 THz). Electromagnetic waves in this frequency range, called radio waves, are widely used in modern technology, particularly in telecommunication. To prevent interference between different users, the generation and transmission ...

6. C band (IEEE) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_band_(IEEE)

   The C band is a designation by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) for a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum in the microwave range of frequencies ranging from 4.0 to 8.0 gigahertz (GHz). [1] However, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission C band proceeding and auction, designated 3.7–4.2 GHz as C band. [2]

7. Ku band - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ku_band

   The K u band (/ ˌ k eɪ ˈ j uː /) is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum in the microwave range of frequencies from 12 to 18 gigahertz (GHz). The symbol is short for "K-under" (originally ‹See Tfd› German: Kurz-unten), because it is the lower part of the original NATO K band, which was split into three bands (K u, K, and K a) because of the presence of the atmospheric water ...
