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 ...

Radio spectrum is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum ranging from 1 Hz to 3000 GHz (3 THz). Electromagnetic waves in this frequency range, called radio waves, have become widely used in modern technology, particularly in telecommunication.
United States Frequency Allocation Chart. A printed version of the most recent version of the United States Frequency Allocations: The Radio Spectrum Chart (published in January 2016 from data as of September 2015) is available from the U. S. Government Publishing Office at a cost of $6.00 per copy.
The radio spectrum is the radio frequency (RF) portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. In the United States, regulatory responsibility for the radio spectrum is divided between the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA).
In telecommunications media: The radio-frequency spectrum. Before 1930 the radio spectrum above 30 megahertz was virtually empty of man-made signals. Today, civilian radio signals populate the radio spectrum in eight frequency bands, ranging from very low frequency (VLF), starting at 3 kilohertz, and extending to extremely high frequency (EHF),….
In the United States the radio spectrum is managed by various agencies. See Basic Elements of Spectrum Management. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) assigns frequencies and issues licenses to non-federal radio spectrum users.
