Abstract:
S-band has been used for satellite Telemetry, Tracking and Control (TT&C) applications for many years and more recently X-band has also been deployed. A theoretical design for a new dual S/X-band feed-system for a ground station with S-band transmit and receive capabilities and X-band receive capabilities is presented.
