Conversion
 
Radio frequency to wavelength and vice versa
 
Electromagnetic waves = Radio waves

The speed of light in free space (a vacuum) is the speed at which electromagnetic waves propagate.


To use the calculator, simply enter a value.
The calculator works in both directions of the
sign.

 
Radio frequency f  
Hz
 ↔  Wavelength λ  
m
f = c / λ   λ = c / f
Speed of light c = 299,792,458 m/s

Formulas and equations: c = λ · f         λ = c / f = c · T         f = c / λ

When rounding the speed of light to 300,000,000 m/s you get:
 
  Frequency  
 Wavelength 
      1 MHz =       1,000,000 Hz = 106 Hz           300 m
    10 MHz =     10,000,000 Hz = 107 Hz             30 m
  100 MHz =   100,000,000 Hz = 108 Hz               3 m
1000 MHz = 1000,000,000 Hz = 109 Hz            0.3 m

There are four parts to a wave:
wavelength, period, frequency, and amplitude
