Difference Between Bandwidth and Frequency

Compare with Definitions

Bandwidth

A range of frequencies within a given band, in particular that used for transmitting a signal.

Frequency

Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time. It is also occasionally referred to as temporal frequency to emphasize the contrast to spatial frequency, and ordinary frequency to emphasize the contrast to angular frequency.

Bandwidth

The energy or mental capacity required to deal with a situation
He lives alone, and says he doesn't have the bandwidth to handle a steady relationship

Frequency

The rate at which something occurs over a particular period of time or in a given sample
An increase in the frequency of accidents due to increased overtime

Bandwidth

The numerical difference between the upper and lower frequencies of a band of electromagnetic radiation, especially an assigned range of radio frequencies.

Frequency

The rate per second of a vibration constituting a wave, either in a material (as in sound waves), or in an electromagnetic field (as in radio waves and light)
Different thicknesses of glass will absorb different frequencies of sound

Bandwidth

The amount of data that can be passed along a communications channel in a given period of time.

Frequency

The property or condition of occurring at frequent intervals.

Bandwidth

The width, usually measured in hertz, of a frequency band.

Frequency

The number of repetitions of a complete sequence of values of a periodic function per unit variation of an independent variable.

Bandwidth

(of a signal) The width of the smallest frequency band within which the signal can fit.

Frequency

The number of complete cycles of a periodic process occurring per unit time.

Bandwidth

The rate of data flow in digital networks typically measured in bits per second; the bitrate.

Frequency

The number of repetitions per unit time of a complete waveform, as of an electric current.

Bandwidth

(informal) The capacity, energy or time required.
I think it's a worthy project, but I just don't have the bandwidth right now.

Frequency

The number of measurements or observations having a certain value or characteristic.

Bandwidth

The maximum rate of information transfer (measured in bits/second) that can be carried by a communication channel.

Frequency

See relative frequency.

Bandwidth

A data transmission rate; the maximum amount of information (bits/second) that can be transmitted along a channel

Frequency

The rate of occurrence of anything; the relationship between incidence and time period.
With growing confidence, the Viking’s raids increased in frequency.

Frequency

(uncountable) The property of occurring often rather than infrequently.

Frequency

(countable) The quotient of the number of times n a periodic phenomenon occurs over the time t in which it occurs: f = n / t.

Frequency

(statistics) number of times an event occurred in an experiment (absolute frequency)

Frequency

The condition of returning frequently; occurrence often repeated; common occurence; as, the frequency of crimes; the frequency of miracles.
The reasons that moved her to remove were, because Rome was a place of riot and luxury, her soul being almost stifled with, the frequencies of ladies' visits.

Frequency

A crowd; a throng.

Frequency

The number of occurrences within a given time period (usually 1 second);
The frequency of modulation was 40 cycles per second

Frequency

The ratio of the number of observations in a statistical category to the total number of observations

Frequency

The number of observations in a given statistical category
