Radio frequency communications for spacecraft are conducted between 30 MHz and 60 GHz . The lower frequency bands are typically more mature for SmallSat usage, however extensive use of these bands has led to crowding and challenges acquiring licensing.

As mentioned above, the transceiver on board the ISS is tuned to transmit radio signals at a frequency of 145.80 MHz . “Anybody with a receiver or scanner able to tune into that frequency can listen to the space station when it’s overhead,” Ransom said.18 Ağu 2011

Currently, NASA relies primarily on radio waves for communications, but the agency is developing ways to communicate with infrared lasers. This type of transmission — dubbed optical communications — will offer missions higher data rates than ever before.

The rover communicates with the orbiters and the DSN through radio waves . They communicate with each other through X-band, which are radio waves at a much higher frequency than radio waves used for FM stations.

The 8 400-8 450 MHz (space-to-Earth) band is very congested, since it is being extensively used by all deep-space missions. The 34.2-34.7 GHz (Earth-to-space) and 31.8-32.3 GHz (space-to-Earth) allocations are not yet crowded, but deep-space missions have started using these bands.
