Radar-frequency bands according to IEEE standard [17] Band designation Frequency range Explanation of meaning of letters; HF: 0.003 to 0.03 GHz: High frequency [18] VHF: 0.03 to 0.3 GHz: Very high frequency [18] UHF: 0.3 to 1 GHz: Ultra-high frequency [18] L: 1 to 2 GHz: Long wave S: 2 to 4 GHz: Short wave C: 4 to 8 GHz: Compromise between S ...
The IEEE defines the UHF radar band as frequencies between 300 MHz and 1 GHz. [3] Two other IEEE radar bands overlap the ITU UHF band: the L band between 1 and 2 GHz and the S band between 2 and 4 GHz. UHF television antenna on a residence. This type of antenna, called a Yagi–Uda antenna, is widely used at UHF frequencies.
The 1090 MHz frequency (paired with 1030 MHz) is also used by Mode S transponders, which ADS-B augments when operated at this frequency. The TCAS system also utilizes the 1030/1090 MHz paired frequencies. ADS-B information can also be broadcast on the L band frequency of 978 MHz. DME and TACAN systems are also in this frequency band.
Very high frequency (VHF) is the ITU designation [1] [2] [3] for the range of radio frequency electromagnetic waves (radio waves) from 30 to 300 megahertz (MHz), with corresponding wavelengths of ten meters to one meter. Frequencies immediately below VHF are denoted high frequency (HF), and the next higher frequencies are known as ultra high ...
The 23 centimeter, 1200 MHz or 1.2 GHz band is a portion of the UHF 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 13 centimeter, 2.3 GHz or 2.4 GHz band is a portion of the UHF radio spectrum internationally allocated to amateur radio and amateur satellite use on a secondary basis. The amateur radio band is between 2300 MHz and 2450 MHz, and thereby inside the S-band. The amateur satellite band is between 2400 MHz and 2450 MHz, and its use by satellite ...
The 70-centimeter amateur band also provides a wider spectrum than the 2-meter band (in the U.S., this is 30 MHz of spectrum, compared to only 4 MHz on the 2-meter band). [2] This allows for many more channels, accommodating fast scan television , wideband digital modes, and point-to-point linking, which may not be permitted on 2-meter and ...
Frequencies above 30 MHz are referred to as Very High Frequency (VHF) region and those above 300 MHz are called Ultra High Frequency (UHF). The allocated bands for amateurs are many megahertz wide, allowing for high-fidelity audio transmission modes and very fast data transmission modes that are unfeasible for the kilohertz-wide allocations in ...
