What is the C-band frequency range?

Sometimes referred to as “mid-band,” you can think of C-band as the “Goldilocks” of frequency: not too low and not too high. It provides a solid mix of coverage and capacity. Operating in the 3.7 GHz to 4.2 GHz range, it sits between the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands (the two Wi-Fi bands).

How is downlink calculated?

Down link C/No (dB Hz) It is the down link carrier to noise ratio. It can be calculated as follows. Solution: Down link C/N o(dB Hz) = Satellite operating EIRP – Downlink path loss – Down link rain attenuation – Receiving antenna pointing loss + Receiver G/T +228.6 .
