IEEE D band is the range of radio frequencies from 110 GHz to 170 GHz in the electromagnetic spectrum. This is equal to wave lengths between 2.7 mm and 1.8 mm. The D band is in the EHF range of the radio spectrum.
This D-Band lies at the approach to upper frequency limit of contemporary electronic oscillator technology, between 110 and 170 GHz.
The NATO military D band intersects with the L band (0.5—1.55 GHz) of the IEEE classification system.
Great care should be exercised when referring to bands by letter, unless it is clear which scheme in use.

Famous quotes containing the word band:
“Firm, united, let us be,
Rallying round our Liberty;
As a band of brothers joined,
Peace and safety we shall find.”
—Joseph Hopkinson (1770–1842)
