  2. X Band Satellite Communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Band_Satellite_Communication

    x Band Satellite Communication operates in the part of the X band or Super High Frequency (SHF) spectrum which is designated by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) for satellite communication, which is those frequencies in the range 7.25 GHz to 7.75 GHz (Space to Earth) and 7.9 GHz to 8.4 GHz (Earth to Space).

  3. X band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_band

    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. [citation needed] In radar engineering, the frequency range is specified by the ...

  4. Canadian weather radar network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_weather_radar_network

    S bands. The Canadian weather radar network consists of 33 weather radars spanning Canada's most populated regions. Their primary purpose is the early detection of precipitation, its motion and the threat it poses to life and property. Each had until 2018 a range of 256 km (159 mi) in radius around the site to detect reflectivity, 3 angles with ...

  5. XTAR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XTAR

    XTAR, LLC was founded in 2001. It was the first commercial satellite operator to provide services in the X-band frequency range of 7.25-8.4 GHz, a band reserved exclusively for government and military users, though it launched the fleet with no government funding. It was the brainchild of a group of leaders at Space Systems/Loral and various ...

  6. Shortwave radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_radio

    Grundig Satellit 400 solid-state, digital shortwave receiver, c. 1986 [1]. Shortwave radio is radio transmission using radio frequencies in the shortwave bands (SW). There is no official definition of the band range, but it always includes all of the high frequency band (HF), which extends from 3 to 30 MHz (100 (exactly 99.930819333) to 10 (exactly 9.9930819333) meters); above the medium ...

  7. Marine VHF radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_VHF_radio

    Marine VHF radio is a worldwide system of two way radio transceivers on ships and watercraft used for bidirectional voice communication from ship-to-ship, ship-to-shore (for example with harbormasters), and in certain circumstances ship-to-aircraft. It uses FM channels in the very high frequency (VHF) radio band in the frequency range between ...

  8. Radio spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum

    The radio spectrum is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum with frequencies from 3 Hz to 3,000 GHz (3 THz). Electromagnetic waves in this frequency range, called radio waves, are widely used in modern technology, particularly in telecommunication. To prevent interference between different users, the generation and transmission of radio ...

  9. MW DX - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MW_DX

    The AM expanded band, or "X-Band" as MW DXers often call it (not to be confused with the range of microwave frequencies), runs from 1610 kHz to 1710 kHz. This is a relatively new portion of the mediumwave broadcast spectrum, with the first two applications for frequencies having been granted in 1997. [ 1 ]
