12 lut 2024 · Radio frequency communications for spacecraft are conducted between 30 MHz and 60 GHz. The lower frequency bands (up to S-band) are typically more mature for SmallSat use, however extensive use of these bands has led to crowding and challenges acquiring licensing.

1 lut 2017 · An example of a superheterodyne receiver frequency plan for X-band is shown in Figure 2. In this receiver, it is desired to receive between 8 GHz and 12 GHz with a 200 MHz bandwidth. The desired spectrum mixes with a tunable local oscillator (LO) to generate an IF at 5.4 GHz. The 5.4 GHz IF then mixes with a 5 GHz LO to produce the final 400 ...
The X band is the designation for a band of frequencies in the microwave radio region of the electromagnetic spectrum. In some cases, such as in communication engineering, the frequency range of the X band is rather indefinitely set at approximately 7.0–11.2 GHz.
Radio waves are usually specified by frequency rather than wavelength. The radio-frequency spectrum (which is simply referred to as spectrum) is only a comparatively small part of the electromagnetic spectrum, covering the range from 3 Hz to 300 GHz.
Bring up this page to study a table of the entire electromagnetic spectrum. The table shows frequency and wavelength, common names such as "light" and "gamma rays," size examples, and any attenuation effects in Earth's environment as discussed below.
that administrations should always use the nomenclature of the frequency and wavelength bands given in Table 1 and Notes 1 and 2, which take account of No. 2.1 of the Radio Regulations (RR). NOTE 1 – “Band number N” extends from 0.3 10N to 3 10N Hz.
Tables 3 and 4 list the 37-channel assignments by frequency bands. Note that frequencies out of the allocated ranges for deep space research are not shown in the tables.
