Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation that transmit through free space by modulating electromagnetic waves with frequencies below light. They can range from 300GHz to 3kHz and travel at the speed of light. Radio waves are used for AM and FM radio, medical treatments like MRI, radio telescopes, mobile phones, wireless networks, radio and television broadcasting, and Wi-Fi networks. Mobile phones transmit to local cell sites to connect calls between cells as the phone moves. Television sends pictures via AM or FM and uses vestigial sideband modulation to reduce bandwidth for analog signals.
