	Radio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Radio waves are a form of electromagnetic radiation, created whenever a charged object (in normal radio transmission, an electron) accelerates with a frequency that lies in the radio frequency (RF) portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
		Although the word 'radio' is used to describe this phenomenon, the transmissions which we know as television, radio, radar, and cell phone are all classed as radio frequency emissions.
		Radio remote control: Use of radio waves to transmit control data to a remote object as in some early forms of guided missile, some early TV remotes and a range of model boats, cars and aeroplanes.

	Radio frequency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Above 300 GHz, the absorption of electromagnetic radiation by Earth's atmosphere is so great that the atmosphere is effectively opaque to higher frequencies of electromagnetic radiation, until the atmosphere becomes transparent again in the so-called infrared and optical window frequency ranges.
		The SHF and EHF bands are often considered to be not part of the radio spectrum and form their own microwave spectrum.

		In its 1994 meeting in Bordeaux, France, the Russians laid out fruits of their own work up until then, which included a very detailed description of a whole series of radio frequency weapons and papers that gave the strategy, doctrine, tactics and techniques as to how they would be used.
		General Schweitzer, I take it that RF (radio frequency) devises [sic] are not new technology and the use of radio frequency is not something that we have just recently discovered.
		But, what makes it unique I suppose, today is that the type of radio frequency weaponry that we can use applied to modern technology (i.e., computer chips) creates a much more intense and difficult situation for us to contemplate.

	DHS \| Department of Homeland Security \| Fact Sheet: Radio Frequency Identification Technology
		Radio frequency (RFID) identification technology refers to wireless systems that allow a device to read information contained in a wireless device or “tag” – from a distance without making any physical contact or requiring a line of sight between the two.
		There is no one definitive “RFID technology,” but, rather, an enormous range of technical solutions that vary in their complexity and cost, depending upon the functionality, packaging, and applications for which they are used.
		Radio frequencies emanating from RFID tags are far below the levels that could cause any harm to human health and below the typical ambient radio frequencies most people are exposed to in the United States on a daily basis from devices such as TVs and radios.
