What kind of radios are used on the space shuttle?

UHF, S-band and Ku-band are all used by the shuttles.


What are exact frequecies that are used for radars in Ku band?

The Ku-band ranges between 12 and 18 GHz. It is primarily used for satellite communications in Europe. The FCC has regulated 13.45 GHz for Ku and has only recently been introduced to the U.S. for speed detection.


What is Quo-band?

Perhaps, you misspelled it. It should be Ku band, a high frequency band used for beaming satellite signals, including Television channels.


Why signal loss happens to dth during rain?

the transponders present in satellites which transmit signals towards earth uses frequencies within Ku band. Ku band is a special set of frequencies ranging between 10-15 GHz. The main advantage of using this band is that the antena size can be very small and the recieving equipments are relatively cheaper. These signals are of small wavelength due to which they are more prone to atenuation due to water droplets in the atmosphere. In fact there wont be any solution for this problem too..:(


Why is ku band microwave used in remote sensing of sea ice?

The Ku-band (12-22 GHz frequency, 2 cm wavelength) is much stronger than the the other bands (x, c, l). With its high capability it is used to study the properties of sea ice and thinner snow, where there is weaker response by the other bands. Using Ku-band , we get a stronger backscattered radiation from the surface and hence the surface type properties could be studied more in detail.

What does DTH mean?

Medically it is Delayed-type Hypersensitivity, an allergy test. It is also an abbreviation for "Direct-to-home" when referring to Dish TV broadcasting, Detroit Edison class "H" stocks, and the airport code for Death Valley, California. Since this was originally posted in "Graduate Degrees", I have no idea if any of these is the answer you were looking for.


Provide a list and brief description of the five frequency bands which are used by satellites to transmit and receive signals?

L-band--1.5-2.7 GHz S-band--2.7-3.5 GHz C-band--3.4-6.7 GHz Ku-band--12-18 GHz Ka-band--18-40 GHz


A frequency of 1GHz on a spectrum analyser corresponds to what frequency in the Ku band?

The Ku band of microwave frequencies ranges from 12 to 18 GHz. A frequency of 1GHz is not in the Ku band. There is no correspondence. Is the 1GHz setting on the spectrum analyzer a center frequency? Or is it one of the ends of the spectrum analyzed? Is it the width of the spectrum being analyzed? And if it is the latter, what is its center? Knowing these things will still not change the answer given, but may help to "sort out" a possible problem with the question the way it is written.


What is the frequency range in satellite communication?

The satellite transponder typically works in either the C-band (4-8GHz) or the Ku-band (12-18GHz) and these are for the downlink (from the satellite to the earth station).
