EMS
The Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) is the entire range of electromagnetic radiation, from radio waves to gamma rays, which is vital for military communication, radar, navigation, and electronic warfare operations.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
The Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) is the full range of electromagnetic radiation across all frequencies and wavelengths, representing a fundamental domain for military operations including command and control (C2), intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR), precision targeting, and electronic warfare (EW) activities like jamming and deception.
BACKGROUND
EMS Technologies, Inc. was an Atlanta-based company with approximately $290 million in annual sales revenue before its 2011 purchase by Honeywell International. EMS-T specialized in wireless, defense, and space communications systems.
