Frequency really means how often a wavelengths repeats itself and is actually related to time. Different wavelengths can be of a single frequency or they can contain multiple, yet separate frequencies at the same time. One of the ways that wavelengths can be identified, is simply by the frequency. By and large, the frequency used will also tell you a bit about the application in which it's used, as well as the type of frequency you can expect it to be, such as AM, FM, TV, Satellite, or some other type of communications. This is largely in part because there is a published frequency spectrum chart that's available in print and online that identifies most uses for a specific frequency range.

What causes sideband frequency?

If you subtract from the carrier frequency the frequency of the tone that modulates it, then filter out the carrier frequency, then you have a lower sideband frequency. If you add to the carrier frequency, filter out the carrier, then you have an upper sideband frequency.
