Ka band 26 40 ghz communications satellites uplink in either the 27 5 ghz and 31 ghz bands and high resolution close range targeting radars on military aircraft.
Satellite uplink and downlink frequency range.
L band in the range from 1621 35 to 1626 5 mhz used for both uplink and downlink.
Duplex spacing of 45 mhz is used.
The c band is primarily used for voice and data communications as well as backhauling.
This extended gsm e gsm uses frequency range 880 915 mhz uplink and 925 960 mhz downlink adding 50 channels channel numbers 975 to 1023 and 0 to the original gsm 900 band.
Now as would have thought separate frequency bands are always allocated for uplink and downlink signals often separated by a gap maybe for future allocation since the span of guard bands.
To prevent interferance caused by multiple sites transmitting on the same frequencies government agencies and standards organizations around the globe try to keep the usage organized and often such controls take the form of government regulations which carry the weight.
In europe ku band downlink is used from 10 7 ghz to 12 75 ghz for direct broadcast satellite services such as astra.
However due to the lower frequency range it performs better under adverse weather conditions on the ground.
The downlink chain is built using nearly the same equipment in reverse order.
Io 86 lapan a2 uplink fm 88 5 hz ctcss downlink fm.
The direction from vsats to sallite is known as uplink and the direction from satellite to vsats is known as downlink.
For real time updates about which mode the satellite is in see the amsat live oscar satellite status page.
There are a number of radio frequency ranges in use in satellite communications such as c x ku ka and even ehg and v band.
23 18 to 23 38 ghz.
6ghz band frequency is used for uplink and 4ghz frequency band is used for downlink in c band satellite communication operation.
5925 mhz to 6425 mhz is uplink band where as 3700 to 4200 mhz is downlink band.
In some countries the gsm 900 band has been extended to cover a larger frequency range.
