An oscillating or accelerated is supposed to be source of an electromagnetic wave. An oscillating change produces an oscillating electric field in space which further produces an oscillating magnetic field which in turn is a source of electric field. These oscillating electric and magnetic field, hence, keep on regenerating each other and an electromagnetic wave is produced 

The frequency of em wave = Frequency of oscillating charge
