M band
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
NATO Radio bands |
IEEE Radio bands |
The M band is the range of radio frequencies from 60 GHz to 100 GHz in the electromagnetic spectrum. This is equal to wave lengths between 5 mm and 3 mm. The M band is in the EHF range of the radio spectrum.
The modern M band intersects with the V (40—75 GHz) and W band (75—111 GHz) of the older IEEE classification system.
