Definition of Frequency


The frequency of a signal or an event measures how often something happens.

For example, the frequency of a wave form is the number of times it completes a cycle in a given unit of time.

Waves that have longer cycles have lower frequencies, and waves that have shorter cycles have higher frequencies.
