ITU-R V.431-8 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R V.431-8 Nomenclature of the frequency and wavelength bands used in telecommunications (1953-1956-1959-1963-1966-1974-1978-1982-1986-1993-2000-2015) Scope This text recommends the use

9、of the hertz (Hz) as the unit of frequency, and the nomenclature to be used for the description of frequency and wavelength bands. It also provides extended information on nomenclature used in some applications. Keywords Hertz, frequency bands, wavelength bands Related ITU Recommendations Recommenda

11、sidering a) that the merits of Heinrich Hertz (1857-1897) as a research worker on the basic phenomena of radio waves, are universally recognized, as was confirmed at the centenary of his birth; and that as early as 1937 the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) adopted the hertz (symbol: H

12、z) as a name for the unit of frequency (see inter alia, International Standard IEC 60027); b) that the nomenclature in this Recommendation should be as synoptic as possible and that the designation of frequency bands should be as concise as possible, recommends 1 that the hertz (Hz) be accepted for

13、use in publications of the ITU, as the name for the unit of frequency in accordance with Recommendation ITU-R V.430 on the use of the international system of units (SI); 2 that administrations should always use the nomenclature of the frequency and wavelength bands given in Table 1 and Notes 1 and 2

14、, which take account of No. 2.1 of the Radio Regulations (RR). 2 Rec. ITU-R V.431-8 TABLE 1 NOTE 1 “Band number N” extends from 0.3 10N to 3 10N Hz.

15、deca (10), h: hecto (102), Ma: myria (104). NOTE 3 This nomenclature, used for designating frequencies in the field of telecommunications, may be extended to cover the ranges shown below, as is proposed by the International Union of Radio Science (URSI) (see Table 2). TABLE 2 NOTE 4 In most countrie

16、s the frequency ranges used for FM sound broadcasting and television are designated by the Roman numerals I to V. The frequency ranges are indicated in Table 3. It should be noted that these ranges are, in some cases, not exclusive to the broadcasting services. Band number Symbols Frequency range (l

The symbols in question consist of capital letters which may be accompanied by an index (usually a small l

21、etter). There is at present no standard correspondence between the letters and the frequency bands concerned, and the same letter may be used to designate a number of different bands. It is not advisable to use these symbols in ITU publications. If, however, a letter symbol is used, reference should

22、 be made to the corresponding frequency band limits or at least to a frequency in the band, if that information is sufficient in itself, the first time the symbol appears in the text.
