International Microwave Power Institute
The International Microwave Power Institute (IMPI) is an organization devoted to microwave energy and its usage. The organization has conducted surveys as well as educated the public to dispel microwave myths. Founded in Canada in 1966, it is now headquartered in Mechanicsville, Virginia. It was initially created for industrial and scientific purposes, however in 1977, IMPI's purpose was expanded to deal with the evolution of microwave oven for the home. The professional scientific journal of IMPI is the ''Journal of Microwave Power and Electromagnetic Energy The ''Journal of Microwave Power and Electromagnetic Energy'' is a quarterly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering industrial, medical, and scientific applications of electromagnetic and microwaves from 0.1 to 100 GHz, including topics such a ....''

Microwave
Microwave is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths ranging from about one meter to one millimeter corresponding to frequency, frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz respectively. Different sources define different frequency ranges as microwaves; the above broad definition includes both Ultra high frequency, UHF and Extremely high frequency, EHF (millimeter wave) bands. A more common definition in radio-frequency engineering is the range between 1 and 100 GHz (wavelengths between 0.3 m and 3 mm). In all cases, microwaves include the entire Super high frequency, SHF band (3 to 30 GHz, or 10 to 1 cm) at minimum. Frequencies in the microwave range are often referred to by their Radio band#IEEE, IEEE radar band designations: S band, S, C band (IEEE), C, X band, X, Ku band, Ku, K band (IEEE), K, or Ka band, Ka band, or by similar NATO or EU designations. The prefix ' in ''microwave'' is not meant to suggest a wavelength in the M ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
