Microwaves – Frequency range approximately 1 GHz to 30 GHz:
● L band: 1 to 2 GHz
● S band: 2 to 4 GHz
● C band: 4 to 8 GHz
● X band: 8 to 12 GHz
● Ku band: 12 to 18 GHz
● K band: 18 to 26.5 GHz
● Ka band: 26.5 to 40 GHz
Millimeter waves – Frequency range approximately 30 GHz to 300 GHz:
● V band: 40 to 75 GHz
● E band: 60 to 90 GHz
● W band: 75 to 110 GHz
● F band: 90 to 140 GHz
● D band: 110 to 170 GHz
● G band: 140 to 220 GHz
● Y band: 220 to 325 GHz
The boundary between microwaves and millimeter waves is generally considered to be 30 GHz. Microwaves have longer wavelengths while millimeter waves have shorter wavelengths. The frequency ranges are segmented into bands designated by letters for easier reference. Each band is associated with certain applications and propagation characteristics. The detailed band definitions facilitate precise technical specifications and standards for microwave and millimeter wave systems.
