frequency allocation
Frequency allocation is the process of designating specific parts of the electromagnetic spectrum for various uses, such as radio broadcasting, cell phones, TV signals, and satellite communications. Think of the spectrum like a vast radio highway; each type of service is assigned its own lanes to prevent interference. Regulatory agencies carefully plan and manage these allocations to ensure smooth operation, efficient use of resources, and minimal overlap. This systematic allocation helps different technologies coexist without disruption, allowing us to stay connected through wireless devices, broadcast information, and support communication systems worldwide.
