  2. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

    A diagram of the electromagnetic spectrum, showing various properties across the range of frequencies and wavelengths. 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.

  3. Visible spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_spectrum

    Visible wavelengths pass largely unattenuated through the Earth's atmosphere via the "optical window" region of the electromagnetic spectrum. An example of this phenomenon is when clean air scatters blue light more than red light, and so the midday sky appears blue (apart from the area around the Sun which appears white because the light is not ...

  4. Electromagnetic radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_radiation

    A monochromatic wave (a wave of a single frequency) consists of successive troughs and crests, and the distance between two adjacent crests or troughs is called the wavelength. Waves of the electromagnetic spectrum vary in size, from very long radio waves longer than a continent to very short gamma rays smaller than atom nuclei.

  5. X band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_band

    The X band is the designation for a band of frequencies in the microwave radio region of the electromagnetic spectrum.In some cases, such as in communication engineering, the frequency range of the X band is rather indefinitely set at approximately 7.0–11.2 GHz.

  6. Spectral band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_band

    A spectrum with various bands. Spectral bands are regions of a given spectrum, having a specific range of wavelengths or frequencies. Most often, it refers to electromagnetic bands, regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. [1] More generally, spectral bands may also be means in the spectra of other types of signals, e.g., noise spectrum.

  7. E band (waveguide) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_band_(waveguide)

    The waveguide E band is the range of radio frequencies from 60 GHz to 90 GHz in the electromagnetic spectrum, [1] [2] corresponding to the recommended frequency band of operation of WR12 waveguides. These frequencies are equivalent to wave lengths between 5 mm and 3.333 mm. The E band is in the EHF range of the radio spectrum.

  8. Spectral signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_signature

    The spectral signature of an object is a function of the incidental EM wavelength and material interaction with that section of the electromagnetic spectrum. The measurements can be made with various instruments, including a task specific spectrometer , although the most common method is separation of the red, green, blue and near infrared ...

  9. High frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_frequency

    HF's position in the electromagnetic spectrum.. High frequency (HF) is the ITU designation [1] [2] for the band of radio waves with frequency between 3 and 30 megahertz (MHz). It is also known as the decameter band or decameter wave as its wavelengths range from one to ten decameters (ten to one hundred meters).
