C-band (4–8 GHz) Primarily used for satellite communications, for full-time satellite TV networks or raw satellite feeds.
Read moreWhat is S band in satellite?
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 moreWhy do satellites use Ka band?
In satellite communications, the Ka band allows higher bandwidth communication .
Read moreWhat is S band transceiver?
Rakon’s NewSpace S-band Transceiver is a low SWaP (Size, Weight and Power) full-duplex piece of equipment . It is designed for TT&C subsystems and high data rate communications between satellites (inter-satellite links) or between satellites and ground stations.
Read moreWhere are patch antennas used?
A patch antenna is a low-profile directional radio antenna that is used for indoor locations covering single-floor offices, stores and small studios . It is mounted on a small, rectangular, flat surface and consists of two metallic plates placed upon each other.

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 moreWhy does most of the satellites operate in L band and S band?
All GPS signals are in the L-band of the frequency spectrum ( 1–2 GHz). Because L-band waves penetrate clouds, fog, rain, storms, and vegetation, GPS units can receive accurate data in all weather conditions, day or night .
