这种划分方式是雷达业内的通俗叫法,没有一个严格、统一的标准。通常的划分是:L波段 1~2GHz;S波段 2~4GHz;C波段 4~8GHz;X波段 8~12GHz;Ku波段 12~18GHz;K波段 18~27GHz;Ka波段 27~40GHz;U波段 40~60GHz;V波段 60~80GHz;W波段 80~100GHz
Band designation | Frequency range | |
---|---|---|
HF | 0.003 to 0.03 GHz | High Frequency[7] |
VHF | 0.03 to 0.3 GHz | Very High Frequency[7] |
UHF | 0.3 to 1 GHz | Ultra High Frequency[7] |
L | 1 to 2 GHz | Long wave |
S | 2 to 4 GHz | Short wave |
C | 4 to 8 GHz | Compromise between S and X |
X | 8 to 12 GHz | Used in WW II for fire control, X for cross (as in crosshair). Exotic.[8] |
Ku | 12 to 18 GHz | Kurz-under |
K | 18 to 27 GHz | Kurz (German for "short") |
Ka | 27 to 40 GHz | Kurz-above |
V | 40 to 75 GHz | |
W | 75 to 110 GHz | W follows V in the alphabet |
mm or G | 110 to 300 GHz[note 1] | Millimeter[6] |
