  2. Distance measuring equipment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_measuring_equipment

    Distance measuring equipment. In aviation, distance measuring equipment (DME) is a radio navigation technology that measures the slant range (distance) between an aircraft and a ground station by timing the propagation delay of radio signals in the frequency band between 960 and 1215 megahertz (MHz). Line-of-visibility between the aircraft and ...

  3. 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. To prevent interference between different users, the generation and transmission of radio ...

    The 900 MHz band (935-940 MHz) is available solely for Industrial users. Finally, Public Safety entities are allotted an exclusive band of frequencies at 758-806 MHz. Low band has longer range capability, but requires mobile antennas as long as nine feet (2.7 m) tall.

  5. 23-centimeter band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/23-centimeter_band

    The 23 centimeter, 1200 MHz or 1.2 GHz band is a portion of the UHF (microwave) radio spectrum internationally allocated to amateur radio and amateur satellite use on a secondary basis. The amateur radio band is between 1240 MHz and 1300 MHz. The amateur satellite band is between 1260 MHz and 1270 MHz, and its use by satellite operations is ...

  9. Audio frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_frequency

    t. e. An audio frequency or audible frequency (AF) is a periodic vibration whose frequency is audible to the average human. The SI unit of frequency is the hertz (Hz). It is the property of sound that most determines pitch. [1] The generally accepted standard hearing range for humans is 20 to 20,000 Hz. [2][3][4] In air at atmospheric pressure ...
