What is Frequency

Handbook of Research on Smart Power System Operation and Control
In statistics the frequency (or absolute frequency) of an event is the number of times the event occurred in an experiment or study. These frequencies are often graphically represented in histograms.

Abstract
Power quality problems can cause processes and equipment to malfunction or shut down. And the consequences can range from excessive energy costs to complete work stoppage. Obviously, power quality is critical. There are many ways in which a power feed can be poor quality, and so no single figure can completely quantify the quality of a power feed. In this chapter, the authors present all definitions, classifications, and problems related to power quality. Finally, they do a comparison between the practical measurements and standards related to power quality.

The Transport-Level Requirements of the Internet-Based Streaming
Frequencies constitute the rate at which electromagnetic waves, such as light, television, and radio waves, oscillate. Electromagnetic waves are comprised of a continuum of emanations, including light waves which are visible, and invisible frequencies such as television and radio waves which are lower frequency than light, and x-rays and gamma rays which are higher frequency. Frequencies are measured in Hertz (Hz), kilohertz (kHz), megahertz (MHz), or gigahertz (GHz), and represent the rate of oscillation of the waves.
