waveband
Radio frequency slice
A waveband is a range of radio frequencies or wavelengths, typically designated for specific types of transmission: The station broadcasts on the AM waveband.
Different wavebands serve different purposes—shortwave for long-distance communication, FM for local music broadcasting, and so on.
