2 Infrared Light Infrared Light Electromagnetic waves whose frequency range is above that of microwaves, but below that of the visible spectrum. Electromagnetic waves whose frequency range is above that of microwaves, but below that of the visible spectrum. region of the electromagnetic spectrum that includes wavelengths from 0.7 to 1000 microns. region of the electromagnetic spectrum that includes wavelengths from 0.7 to 1000 microns. Infrared are invisible radiation, sensed as heat. Infrared are invisible radiation, sensed as heat.

3 Regions in the infra-red : Regions in the infra-red : 1. Near infra-red NIR ( 0.7 – 1.4 µm in wavelength) 2. Short wavelength IR SWIR ( 1.4 – 3 µm in wavelength) 3. Mid wavelength IR MWIR (3 – 8 µm in wavelength) 4. Long wavelength IR LWIR (8 – 15 µm in wavelength) 5. Far infrared FIR ( µm in wavelength)

4 IR vs RF The frequency of radio waves is from 3 kHz to about 300,000 Mhz while IR has wavelength longer than visible light but shorter than RF. The frequency of radio waves is from 3 kHz to about 300,000 Mhz while IR has wavelength longer than visible light but shorter than RF. For long distance communication RF is the best choice while IR is a good choice for movie theaters, court rooms etc. For long distance communication RF is the best choice while IR is a good choice for movie theaters, court rooms etc. RF transmission requires more electrical power than the infrared type. RF transmission requires more electrical power than the infrared type. IR systems are also immune to radio inter-ference so receiver management is easier than that in RF.
