Talk:Extremely high frequency

message: This article should be called "Millimeter-waves", since that is the name used everywhere (except on WP). Calling it "Extremely high frequency" is anachronstic. Setreset (talk) 08:12, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: "Extremely High Frequency" or EHF is the official designation of this band by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) standards body  1 the same as VHF or UHF are for those bands.  The term "extremely high frequency" seems to be widely used in professional electrical engineering literature.   However, maybe the name "millimeter waves" should be moved up into the lead sentence. --ChetvornoTALK 19:46, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

message: Recently an editor has been repeatedly adding content on health hazards of the EHF radiation used in the Active Denial System, and health hazards of radio waves in general, to the Weapons systems section.  While I think this material is important, I feel it is too general and WP:OFFTOPIC for this article.  The material pertaining to the Active Denial System probably belongs in that article.  The material on health hazards of cellphones certainly does not belong here because cellphones do not use the EHF band, it could perhaps be put in Cell phone.  Alternatively, it could all go in Electromagnetic radiation and health. --ChetvornoTALK 17:04, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

message: Am wondering about possibilities for mm wave radar as a sensor for aircraft. The article states that for communication mm waves are good for only about 1000 meters, and that the short range is due to absorption by O2 and N2 molecules (or possibly other trace gases not mentioned?). This is not stated in the article, but I am assuming that this value of 1000 meters pertains to mmW propagation at sea level. Now my thinking is that if an aircraft is flying, say, at 16,500 meters then the air density is one-eighth the value at sea level. And since the density of air molecules is 1/8 the useful range of a passive mmW sensor at that altitude would be around 8000 meters. It could be greater since a detection device could be much more sensitive than a communication device meant to transmit information. Also, the sensor could be built as a mmW telescope and thus offer magnification at the expense of restricted field of view. If true, this could be useful for some applications. So it seems helpful if some expert here could offer an opinion on this: does thinner air equate to decreased atmospheric attenuation (increased range)?. Thanks in advance.Wikkileaker (talk) 15:33, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  millimeter wave propagation at elevated altitudes ?? 

message: The section "Medicine" in this article looks very fishy. This looks to me to be unscientific and esoteric. I did a quick search and am pretty sure it's nonsense. I am particularly suspicious of the fact that there are no specific diseases that can be treated with this technique. However, I am neither a physician nor a physicist, so I do not want to change the article. Can an expert provide clarity here?

replies: text: A quick PubMed search brings up a few results, so this is not entirely made up, although the way the section has been written indeed sounds somewhat promotional. A rewrite would be warranted, but I wouldn't be keen on deleting altogether. — kashmīrī TALK 00:49, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

SORRY!
That's why 5G mmWave is ILLEGAL here.
Sorry again.
