Similarly, the frequency with which, the signal is sent by the transponder is called as Downlink frequency. The following figure illustrates this concept clearly. Satellite s x & %, ‘ First Second Earth Station Earth Station The transmission of signal from first earth station to satellite through a channel is called as uplink. Similarly, the transmission of signal from satellite to second earth station through a channel is called a: downlink. t Uplink frequency is the frequency at which, the first earth station is communicating with satellite. The satellite transponder converts this signal into another frequency and sends it down to the second earth station. This frequency is called as Downlink frequency. In similar way, second earth station can also communicate with the first one. satellite Frequency Bands e L-band (1-2 GHz) e S-band (2-4 GHz) e C-band (4-8 GHz) e X-band (8-12 GHz) e Ku-band (12-18 GHz) e Ka-band (26-40 GHz) Gus, est f Bose station!
