Radio frequency and spectrum are at the heart of modern communications, enabling
everything from mobile networks to broadcasting and satellite services. Understanding how frequency, bandwidth, and spectrum work is essential for anyone involved in telecoms, networking, or wireless technologies.
In this course, you’ll start with the fundamentals of frequency and bandwidth, exploring
concepts such as sine waves, time and frequency domains, and the differences between
analogue and digital signals. You’ll learn how signal quality is measured, how analogue-to digital conversion works, and why bandwidth matters for services ranging from human
speech to commercial applications.
Next, you’ll dive into the radio spectrum, examining how frequencies are allocated and
managed globally and nationally. The course introduces key organisations and frameworks, including ITU-R, CEPT, ECO, and Ofcom, and explains how spectrum licensing and exemptions operate within the UK. You’ll also gain insight into the role of World Radio
Conferences (WRC) in shaping international spectrum policy.
Designed for professionals in telecoms, broadcasting, and wireless technologies, this
course provides a clear, practical introduction to frequency, bandwidth, and spectrum - ideal for anyone seeking to understand the foundations of radio communication without getting lost in technical complexity.
