In ath drivers we are actively discouraging the use of "G" since 1) that is not the SI unit for gigahertz, and 2) it conflicts with the use of that term in cellular communication where it refers to the generation of technology. So I'd recommend using GHz in descriptions/comments and GHZ/ghz in identifiers.

Side note: in USA, Comcast have started promoting their network as "10G". In their case they're referring to 10 Gbps speeds. They are being called out for misleading consumers with that terminology.
