  2. Microwave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave

    Microwave is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than other radio waves but longer than infrared waves. Its wavelength ranges from about one meter to one millimeter, corresponding to frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz, broadly construed.

  3. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

    In frequency (and thus energy), UV rays sit between the violet end of the visible spectrum and the X-ray range. The UV wavelength spectrum ranges from 399 nm to 10 nm and is divided into 3 sections: UVA, UVB, and UVC. UV is the lowest energy range energetic enough to ionize atoms, separating electrons from them, and thus causing chemical reactions.

  4. Microwave radiometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_radiometer

    A microwave radiometer (MWR) is a radiometer that measures energy emitted at one millimeter-to-metre wavelengths (frequencies of 0.3–300 GHz) known as microwaves. Microwave radiometers are very sensitive receivers designed to measure thermally-emitted electromagnetic radiation. They are usually equipped with multiple receiving channels to ...

  5. Electromagnetic radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_radiation

    Electromagnetic radiation phenomena with wavelengths ranging from one meter to one millimeter are called microwaves; with frequencies between 300 MHz (0.3 GHz) and 300 GHz. At radio and microwave frequencies, EMR interacts with matter largely as a bulk collection of charges which are spread out over large numbers of affected atoms.

  6. Microwave transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_transmission

    Microwave transmission is the transmission of information by electromagnetic waves with wavelengths in the microwave frequency range of 300 MHz to 300 GHz (1 m - 1 mm wavelength) of the electromagnetic spectrum.

  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. Radio wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_wave

    A 1 megahertz radio wave (mid-AM band) has a wavelength of 299.79 meters (983.6 ft). ... When speaking of frequencies in the microwave range and higher, power density ...

  9. Radiometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiometer

    Microwave radiometers operate in the microwave wavelengths. While the term radiometer can refer to any device that measures electromagnetic radiation (e.g. light), the term is often used to refer specifically to a Crookes radiometer ("light-mill"), a device invented in 1873 in which a rotor (having vanes which are dark on one side, and light on ...
