EHF
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-005292
Extremely high frequency, a designation for the band of radio frequencies in the electromagnetic spectrum ranging from 30 to 300 gigahertz. These waves have very short wavelengths, typically from 1 to 10 millimeters. EHF signals are significantly attenuated by atmospheric gases and precipitation, making them suitable for short-range, high-bandwidth communication links.
