Graphs illustrating the problem of image response in a superheterodyne. The horizontal axes are frequency and the vertical axes are voltage. Without an adequate RF filter, any radio signal S2 (green) from the antenna at the image frequency is also heterodyned to the IF frequency along with the desired radio signal S1 (blue) at , so they both pass through the IF filter (red).
As a matter of convention, the ITU divides the radio spectrum into 12 bands, each beginning at a wavelength which is a power of ten (10 n) metres, with corresponding frequency of 3×10 8−n hertz, and each covering a decade of frequency or wavelength. Each of these bands has a traditional name.
Radio-frequency (RF) engineering is a subset of electrical engineering involving the application of transmission line, waveguide, antenna, radar, and electromagnetic field principles to the design and application of devices that produce or use signals within the radio band, the frequency range of about 20 kHz up to 300 GHz.

The length of the line would then be scaled to P 1 assuming the Smith chart radius to be unity. For example, if the actual radius measured from the paper was 100 mm, the length OP 1 would be 63 mm. The following table gives some similar examples of points which are plotted on the Z Smith chart. For each, the reflection coefficient is given in ...
Radio frequency (RF) is the oscillation rate of an alternating electric current or voltage or of a magnetic, electric or electromagnetic field or mechanical system in the frequency [1] range from around 20 kHz to around 300 GHz.
In radio-frequency engineering and communications engineering, a waveguide is a hollow metal pipe used to carry radio waves. [1] This type of waveguide is used as a transmission line mostly at microwave frequencies, for such purposes as connecting microwave transmitters and receivers to their antennas, in equipment such as microwave ovens, radar sets, satellite communications, and microwave ...
CatLane/Getty Images. Go to any sports game—whether it’s a high school game or a pro one—and you’re bound to see athletes on the sidelines drinking Gatorade. It’s likely a staple at ...
Representation of the peak envelope power (PEP) using the example of an AM-modulated signal. The PEP is the power area shown in red. Peak envelope power (PEP) is the average power over a single radio frequency cycle at the crest of the modulation.
