  Method of producing amorphous alloy thin strip for commercial frequency band transformers - Patent 5322113
A method of producing amorphous alloy thin strip suitable for use in commercial frequency band transformers utilizes a high-quality molten steel suitable for electromagnetic silicon steel plates but containing insufficient silicon and boron.
The strip is highly useful for commercial frequency band transformers which typically have operating frequencies of 50Hz and 60Hz.
Thus, to use it to make an amorphous alloy for commercial frequency band transformers, it is necessary to add silicon and boron to the molten steel.

  Very low frequency - Open Encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
This frequency range is used nowadays for the transmission of instructions to submerged submarines (for example with the transmitter DHO38), since radio waves can penetrate some dozen of meters in sea water in this frequency band.
Early in the history of radio engineering within the band starting from 20 kHz attempts were made to use radiotelephone using amplitude and single-sideband modulation, but the result was unsatisfactory, because of the small avalable bandwidth.
This frequency range is subject to no control on the part of the international communications organization (International Telecommunication Union) and may be used in some states by license-free.

 Dual-tone multi-frequency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
No frequency is a multiple of another, the difference between any two frequencies does not equal any of the frequencies, and the sum of any two frequencies does not equal any of the frequencies.
The frequencies were initially designed with a ratio of 21/19, which is slightly less than a whole tone.
The high frequencies may be the same volume or louder as the low frequencies when sent across the line.

 Frequency Band Considerations and Recommendations
The number of lines of interest might be estimated to lie in between the number for which frequency protection is being sought, as a minimum number, to the number in a complete census of lines expected in a particular window.
It is important that the frequency coverage overlap with the VLBA including coverage of the 43 GHz SiO maser and 44 GHz methanol maser lines which are in the same 41-44 GHz band.
Note that the 90-115 GHz band is one of those that may be switched to for phase calibration when observing at higher frequencies, so it would be serious if an interfering signal in some part of the band caused compression.

Typical frequency bands now in use in cellular systems are 8, 10, 13, 15, 18, 23 and 38 GHz, though some of these may not even be available in some countries.
For ease of frequency co-ordination, two or three channels from each available band should be secured and allocated so that when assigning frequencies for the microwave link, only interference from within the network has to be considered.
While the disadvantage of using higher frequency bands on longer paths is rain outage, the drawback of using lower frequencies on shorter paths is frequency congestion.

 DSP Voice Frequency Compandor
Simply put, frequency companding is a method of removing the most unused frequency components from a given source and then shifting the remaining components together.
Frequency shifting can be done quite simply by multiplying a signal in the time domain by a complex exponential.
The frequency spectrum must be symmetrical around the origin, otherwise you have a complex number in the time domain (which you'll find rather difficult to send out the D/A converter).

 Frequency Band and Licensing Requirements For Broadband
Wireless broadband networks are being deployed in a number of frequency bands — from the low end 800 MHz ISM band to 38 GHz Wide band.
The advantage in going up the frequency band is the ability to use higher bandwidth and therefore achieving higher network speed and capacity — in voice terms, it means more channels and more subscribers.
Note: Wireless Data speed is a function of bandwidth, the frequency band employed, modulation technology used, # of channels dedicated, clear line of sight and signal strength, and other factors.

 Wireless Overview - The radio modem
The principle of Direct Sequence is to spread the signal on a larger band by multiplexing it with a signature (the code), to minimise localised interference and background noise.
Also, the Frequency Hopping system have to include a process called whitening, to conform to radio transmission constraints, inserting some regular stuff bits in each packets (to avoid long strings of 0 or 1), adding more overhead (on the other a Direct Sequence signal is withened by the Direct Sequence process).
For example, if B is the base frequency (the carrier) and d the carrier deviation, each time the system want to transmit a 0 it creates a waveform of frequency B-d (a symbol), and each time it want to transmit a 1 it creates a waveform of frequency B+d.

The conventional approach to generating local oscillator (LO) power for millimeter and submillimeter wave heterodyne mixers is to generate power at a lower frequency using a suitable phased-locked source, and to convert this power to the desired commensurate frequency using a nonlinear diode such as a varactor in a frequency multiplier circuit.
The highest frequency band is a future possibility and is not planned to be implemented as part of the initial construction.
The output frequency of the unit is phased-locked to the sixth or eighth harmonic of a 10-15 GHz frequency synthesizer in the case of either 60-90 or 80-120 GHz operation, respectively.

 Band (Frequency Band) - Glossary Entry - Mobile Phone Directory
Band (Frequency Band) is a term used in telecommunications to refer to a range of frequencies authorised for specific purposes.
Each band will be a continuous spectrum of frequencies, with upper and lower limits, and international use of these bands is regulated by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to prevent interference.
For example, the medium wave band is approved for several purposes, the most well-known being its use for public service AM (Amplitude Modulation) radio broadcasts.

In many communication systems, a single, large frequency band is assigned to the system and is shared among a group of users.
At the receiving end of the system, bandpass filters are used to pass the desired signal (the signal lying in the appropriate frequency sub-band) to the appropriate user and to block all the unwanted signals.
The frequency band from 88 MHz to 108 MHz is reserved over the public airwaves for commercial FM broadcasting.

This implies, provided the amplification factors are allowed to assume arbitrary values, that a very high amplification factor will be applied to this frequency band, and noise or other unwanted signal components will be adjusted to the same energy as that of the original.
Usually this is done by grouping the frequency bands according to a Bark-scale, thus exploiting the logarithmic frequency resolution of the human auditory system.
It is advantageous, after obtaining the appropriate amplification factors, to apply smoothing in time and frequency, in order to avoid aliasing and ringing in the adjusting filterbank as well as ripple in the amplification factors.

In addition, CORF does not oppose the allocation of the 1670-1675 MHz band to Fixed and Mobile Services (except aeronautical mobile), as long as service rules are enacted that protect important RAS observations in the adjacent 1660-1670 MHz band.
CORF also suggests that the Commission prohibit transmissions in the 1660-1660.5 MHz band until sharing rules and coordination mechanisms are established, and that the provisions of Section 25.202(f) or proposed Section 26.216(a) be applied to emissions into that band.
CORF demonstrates that it will be difficult for satellite space-to-Earth downlinks in the 10.7-12.7 GHz band to operate in a manner that does not cause harmful interference to radio astronomy observations in the 10.6-10.7 GHz band, in which the Radio Astronomy Service has a primary allocation.
