[0115] The different wave frequencies used for the tests are represented on the x-axis of the graph, expressed in MHz.
[0116] Wave frequency is a measure of how quickly a wave repeats itself in a unit of time. It is usually expressed in hertz (Hz), which represents the number of complete wave cycles occurring per second.
[0117] The wave frequencies are: 30 MHz, 50 MHz, 80 MHz, 100 MHz, 200 MHz, 300 Mhz, 400 Mhz, 500 Mhz, 600 Mhz, 700 Mhz, 800 Mhz, 900 Mhz, 1000 Mhz, 1200 Mhz, 1400 Mhz, 1600 Mhz, 1800 Mhz, and 2000 Mhz.

[0119] The solid line curve represents the MES (MEASUREMENT) category.
[0120] The dashed curve is constant, with a wave frequency value of 34 from 30 MHz to 2000 MHz. This corresponds to the ATTR (Attenuation Retained) limit of the project.
[0121] The line curve represents the CAL (Calculated Tendency) category. This is the minimum average attenuation value over the entire frequency spectrum: -47 dB
