Satellite Communication (satcom) is based on a specific range of frequencies. The useable radio spectrum ranges from 1Ghz to 300Ghz , where its use for communications ends as the signal becomes infrared, X-Ray and visible light. For maritime satcom, we use the frequencies from 1Ghz up to approx. 30Ghz.
Read moreWhat is the bandwidth of C-band satellite frequency?
C band Satellite bandwidth C band satellite has uplink frequency in the range from 5925 to 6425 MHz and downlink in the range from 3700 to 4200 MHz . Different satellites have different number of transponders. Each of this transponder occupy part of the total satellite bandwidth (BW) i.e. 500 MHz.
Read moreWhat is the application of C-band?
The C band is used for many satellite communications transmissions, some Wi-Fi devices, some cordless telephones as well as some surveillance and weather radar systems .
Read moreWhat is the difference between X band and S-band radar?
X-band is widely used because of the ability to utilize smaller antennas that fit on most boats and to provide better target resolution. S-band radars are often used for specialized applications, such as seeing through heavy weather or precipitation and for long-range bird detection. S-band antennas are larger.

New material! BandFrequency RangeOrigin of NameS2 to 4 GHzS for “short” wave. Don’t confuse this with the short wave radio band, which is much lower in frequencyC4 to 8 GHzC for “compromise” between S and X band.X8 to 12 GHzUsed in WW II for fire control, X for cross (as in crosshair)Ku12 to 18 GHzKu for “kurz-under”.Frequency Letter Bands – Microwaves 101 www.microwaves101.com › encyclopedias › frequency-letter-bands
