NATO G band
The NATO G band is the range of NATO for electronic countermeasure (ECM) applications.[1][2] This is equivalent to wavelengths between 7.5 cm and 5 cm. It is a subset of the SHF band as defined by the ITU and corresponds to the lower half of the C band (4–8 GHz) as defined by the IEEE.[3][4]
IEEE G band
The modern IEEE G band covers frequencies from 110 to 300 GHz (2.7 mm—1.0 mm) and includes the 118 GHz oxygen and 183 GHz water lines used for atmospheric sounding. It is also referred to as mm in the 2002 IEEE Standard for Letter Designations for Radar-Frequency Bands.[4]
Obsolete IEEE G band
With the older system, the G band covers frequencies from 140 to 220 MHz (1.5 m—1.2 m) and is in the modern A band.[2]
