- (microwaves) Electromagnetic radiation with wavelength intermediate between radio wave and infrared radiation.
- Microwaves are an energetic form of radio waves. Their wavelength ranges from around 1 mm to 30 cm. Microwave astronomy is very important in the context of the cosmic microwave background radiation.
- (MICROWAVES) Waves of electromagnetic radiation that oscillate from ~10^9 to 3 x 10^11Hz (cycles per second).
- (Microwaves) High power radio waves that typically range from 1 to 40 Gigahertz. An example of the power of microwaves is the microwave multi-point distribution system (MMDS) which is used to distribute cable TV via satellites.
