high frequencyn.adj.

Brit. /ˌhʌɪ ˈfriːkw(ə)nsi/, U.S. /ˌhaɪ ˈfrikwənsi/
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: high adj., frequency n.
Etymology: < high adj. + frequency n.
A. n.
1. A high rate of occurrence of any regularly repeated event, so that the interval between successive events is correspondingly small; (Physics, etc.) frequency (frequency n. 4b) having a relatively large number of cycles in a second; an instance of this; an electric current or voltage, an electromagnetic wave, or a sound wave so characterized; spec. (in radio and telecommunications) a frequency of an electromagnetic wave in the range 3–30 MHz (abbreviated HF), between medium frequency (MF) and very high frequency (VHF), corresponding to a wavelength of 10–100 metres .
