* Radio broadcasting: AM and FM radio waves are used to transmit voice and music from radio stations to receivers.
* Cellular networks: Cellular networks use radio waves to transmit voice and data between cell phones and cell towers.
* Satellite communications: Satellites use radio waves to communicate with each other and with ground stations.
* Wireless networks: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other wireless networks use radio waves to transmit data between devices.
* Two-way radios: Two-way radios, such as walkie-talkies, use radio waves to transmit voice communications between two or more devices.
Navigation
* GPS: Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites use radio waves to transmit signals that can be used to determine the location of a receiver on Earth.
* RADAR: RADAR (Radio Detection and Ranging) systems use radio waves to detect the presence, location, and speed of objects.
Remote control
* Garage door openers: Garage door openers use radio waves to open and close garage doors.
* Keyless entry systems: Keyless entry systems use radio waves to unlock doors without a key.
* Remote controls: Remote controls for TVs, stereos, and other devices use radio waves to control the devices from a distance.
