  2. Sideband - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sideband

    The power of an AM radio signal plotted against frequency. fc is the carrier frequency, fm is the maximum modulation frequency. In radio communications, a sideband is a band of frequencies higher than or lower than the carrier frequency, that are the result of the modulation process. The sidebands carry the information transmitted by the radio ...

  3. Single-sideband modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-sideband_modulation

    The carrier frequency is 1.25 MHz above the lower edge of the 6 MHz wide channel. This effectively makes the system AM at low modulation frequencies and SSB at high modulation frequencies. The absence of the lower sideband components at high frequencies must be compensated for, and this is done in the IF amplifier.

  4. Shortwave bands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_bands

    Shortwave bands are frequency allocations for use within the shortwave radio spectrum (the upper medium frequency [MF] band and all of the high frequency [HF] band). Radio waves in these frequency ranges can be used for very long distance (transcontinental) communication because they can reflect off layers of charged particles in the ionosphere and return to Earth beyond the horizon, a ...

    Standard time frequencies can be heard here. VHF low 54–88 MHz: vestigial sideband modulation for analog video, and FM for analog audio; 8-VSB or OFDM for digital broadcast very high frequency (VHF) band I: Channels 2 through 6 are from 54–88 MHz (except 72–76 MHz). FM radio: 87.5–108 MHz, 76–90 MHz in Japan Frequency Modulation (FM ...

  6. Subcarrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subcarrier

    There are usually at frequencies of 5.8, 6.2, or 6.8 MHz (the video carrier usually resides below 5 MHz on a satellite transponder or microwave relay). Extra subcarriers are sometimes transmitted at around 7 or 8 MHz for extra audio (such as radio stations) or low-to-medium-speed data. This is referred to as multiple channel per carrier (MCPC).

  7. Radio spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum

    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 .

  8. Pan-American television frequencies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan-American_television...

    The Pan-American television frequencies are different for terrestrial and cable television systems. Terrestrial television channels are divided into two bands: the VHF band which comprises channels 2 through 13 and occupies frequencies between 54 and 216 MHz, and the UHF band, which comprises channels 14 through 36 and occupies frequencies between 470 and 608 MHz.

  9. 6-meter band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6-meter_band

    A Yaesu FT-857D tuned to 50.125 MHz, the traditional 6-meter single-sideband calling frequency in the United States. [1] The 6-meter band is the lowest portion of the very high frequency (VHF) radio spectrum (50.000-54.000 MHz) internationally allocated to amateur radio use. The term refers to the average signal wavelength of 6 meters. [a]
