A band is a defined block of radio frequencies allocated by regulatory bodies for specific communication purposes, such as cellular networks, Wi-Fi, AM/FM radio, or emergency services. Bands are usually identified by their frequency range or by letters. Devices must be engineered with antennas and transceivers tuned to the specific band they intend to use.
