The Power to Predict With the ultimate long-range view, the EEC S-Band radar gives you the ability to plan, predict and protect – before severe weather strikes . This massive power makes our S-Band systems ideal for covering huge expanses of land and water, analyzing multiple fronts of heavy precipitation.

Read moreWhat is S band Good For?
The S band is used by airport surveillance radar for air traffic control, weather radar, surface ship radar, and some communications satellites , especially those used by NASA to communicate with the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station. The 10 cm radar short-band ranges roughly from 1.55 to 5.2 GHz.
Read moreWhat is C-band in radar?
What is C band radar? C band radar uses microwave frequencies ranging from 4.0 to 8.0 (GHz) . The C band is used for many satellite communications transmissions, some Wi-Fi devices and cordless telephones as well as some surveillance and weather radar systems.
Read moreWhat is S band used for?
The S band is mainly used for radar systems such as surface ship radar, weather radar and various communication satellites , like those used by NASA for communicating with the International Space Station and the Space Shuttle.
Read moreWhat is the difference between S band and C-band?
It is not uncommon for a S band dish to exceed 25 feet in size. C band radars operate on a wavelength of 4-8 cm and a frequency of 4-8 GHz . Because of the wavelength and frequency, the dish size does not need to be very large. This makes C band radars affordable for TV stations.
