In short: no. A transmission media is a material substance (solid, liquid or gas) through which energy waves can travel. For example, the transmission medium for sound received by the ears is usually air, but solids and liquids may also act as transmission media for sound.

It can also refer to the technical device which employs the material substance to transmit or guide the waves. Thus an optical fiber or a copper cable can be referred to as a transmission medium.

Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic energy, similar to radio waves. Whatever microwaves travel through (i.e.: the air) is the transmission media.

What is the difference between bounded and unbounded media?

Bounded media are those that use cables for transmitting electricity or light; unbounded media does not require cabling and includes satellite, microwave and radio transmission. Wireless connections, including 802.11b and 802.11g, are examples of unbounded media. Today, bounded media continue to be more common than unbounded.
