wireless spectrum

Wireless spectrum refers to the range of electromagnetic frequencies used to transmit data without cables, such as for cell phones, Wi-Fi, and television broadcasts. Think of it like a highway with multiple lanes; each lane carries different signals. Regulators allocate specific parts of this spectrum to ensure various devices and services don't interfere with each other. Efficient spectrum management allows for reliable wireless communication, enabling the many connected devices we use daily. Since spectrum is finite and valuable, optimizing its use is essential for maintaining quality and expanding wireless connectivity.
