About Gigahertz (GHz)
A frequency unit equal to 1,000,000,000 Hz. Gigahertz is the standard unit for modern CPU clock speeds (3–5 GHz), Wi-Fi (2.4, 5, 6 GHz), cellular radio (5G mmWave up to 40 GHz), radar, GPS carrier frequencies (~1.5 GHz), and microwave ovens (2.45 GHz). Semiconductor datasheets, RF network-analyzer traces, and consumer wireless-device spec sheets all use GHz as the default frequency unit.
About Kilohertz (kHz)
A frequency unit equal to 1,000 Hz. Kilohertz is the native band for AM radio (530–1,700 kHz), audio sampling rates (44.1 kHz for CD audio, 48 kHz for video standard), ultrasound in medical imaging (up to 50 MHz), and low-frequency RF applications such as submarine communication and RFID. Audio engineers and radio designers work in kHz daily.
