Band IV

Band IV is the name of a radio frequency range within the ultra high frequency part of the electromagnetic spectrum.[1][2][3][4][5]

Sources differ on the exact frequency range of the band. For example, the Swiss Federal Office of Communications,[1] the Broadcast engineer's reference book[2] and Ericsson India Ltd[3] all define the range of Band IV from 470 to 582 MHz. An EICTA paper[4] defines the range as 474 to 602 MHz, whilst the BBC define the range as 470 to 614 MHz.[5] Band IV is primarily used for analogue and digital (DVB-T, ATSC and ISDB) television broadcasting, as well as services intended for mobile devices such as DVB-H.
