Uplink 7 9 8 4 ghz.
V band satellite communication.
With relatively few satellites in orbit in this band there is a wider separation between adjacent satellites making it ideal for comms on the move cotm applications.
15 1995 the v band at 60 ghz was used by the world s first crosslink communication between satellites in a constellation.
The x band is used mainly for military communications and wideband global satcom wgs systems.
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 operator interest in new bands must be expected as they must look so far ahead.
This news is significant because new tools for testing rf components in the q v band will help ensure the quality of new high throughput satellite payloads.
This communication was between the u s.

60 ghz is attractive for secure satellite crosslinks because it allows for high data rates narrow beams and lying in a strong absorption band of oxygen provides protection.
However for broadband communications provider advantech wireless the move to q v band is only marginally on the radar.
Such as the ka band 20 and 30 ghz.
In europe ku band downlink is used from 10 7 ghz to 12 75 ghz for direct broadcast satellite services such as astra.
The satellite business for operators especially is a long term one and so future requirements need to be addressed far in advance.
This in effect will yield faster and more reliable communication devices in the q v band.
