Radio frequency (RF)

Radio frequency (RF) – A term used to describe a type of alternating current (AC) that, when input into an antenna, creates an electromagnetic (EM) field that is ideal for wireless broadcasting and communication purposes. RF waves are a form of electromagnetic radiation that are used extensively in devices such as radios, televisions, cell phones, and other wireless communication technologies. These waves have the ability to transmit data wirelessly over long distances, making them a crucial component in the operation of a wide range of modern communication technologies. RF waves are typically used in combination with other technologies such as modems, routers, and amplifiers to ensure that data is transmitted quickly and accurately. The use of RF waves continues to be a critical part of modern communication and technology, and is widely used in fields such as telecommunications, military communications, and broadcasting.
