  2. Very high frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Very_high_frequency

    Frequencies immediately below VHF are denoted high frequency (HF), and the next higher frequencies are known as ultra high frequency (UHF). VHF radio waves propagate mainly by line-of-sight , so they are blocked by hills and mountains, although due to refraction they can travel somewhat beyond the visual horizon out to about 160 km (100 miles).

  3. Extremely high frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremely_high_frequency

    The links are fast to deploy and have a lower cost than fibre optics. The band is essentially undeveloped and available for use in a broad range of new products and services, including high-speed, point-to-point wireless local area networks and broadband Internet access. WirelessHD is another recent technology that operates near the 60 GHz ...

  4. Radio spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum

    A radio band is a small frequency band (a contiguous section of the range of the radio spectrum) in which channels are usually used or set aside for the same purpose. To prevent interference and allow for efficient use of the radio spectrum, similar services are allocated in bands.

  5. High frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_frequency

    HF's position in the electromagnetic spectrum.. High frequency (HF) is the ITU designation [1] [2] for the band of radio waves with frequency between 3 and 30 megahertz (MHz). It is also known as the decameter band or decameter wave as its wavelengths range from one to ten decameters (ten to one hundred meters).

  6. Ultra high frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_high_frequency

    UHF TV signals are generally more degraded by moisture than lower bands, such as VHF TV signals. As the visual horizon sets the maximum range of UHF transmission to between 30 and 40 miles (48 to 64 km) or less, depending on local terrain, the same frequency channels can be reused by other users in neighboring geographic areas (frequency reuse).

  7. IEEE 802.11af - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11af

    The physical (PHY) layer in 802.11af is based on the orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme specified in 802.11ac. [5] [note 1] The propagation path loss as well as the attenuation by materials such as brick and concrete is lower in the UHF and VHF bands than in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands, which increases the possible range compared to 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac. [3] The frequency ...

    At Home Depot, a rental truck costs $19 for 75 minutes, or $129 per day. At Lowe’s, it’s $19 for 90 minutes, plus $15 for each additional 15 minutes, or $89 all day. Craftsman Products

  9. UHF television broadcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UHF_television_broadcasting

    For analog signals in the United States, VHF signals on channels 2 to 6, the low-VHF range, were limited to 100 kW, high-VHF on channels 7 to 13 to 316 kW, and UHF to 5 MW, well over 10 times the power of the low-VHF transmitter power limit. This greatly increased the cost of transmitting in these frequencies, both in electrical cost as well as ...
