Dear Jean-Marc, Osvaldo, and the rest of the CMC,

It is clear that we will need to somehow accommodate this situation in our registries.  And I agree that we cannot tell all of these operators of geo sats that they are using the wrong terminology (even if they are).   The strongest consideration here, for the SANA and for CCSDS, is that we not allocate the same SCID to two satellites that are operating in the same frequency range, regardless of what they call it.

I hope we can all agree on that.  Yes?

So my solution is to use both the “frequency band” names and also the frequency numeric ranges.   They will have to specify one (or more) for uplink and one (or more) for downlink. We will get to place the SCIDs in the correct bin by the actual frequency range in use, regardless of what anyone chooses to call it.

Agreed?

Thanks, Peter

Bonjour

I tend to second Osvaldo’s comment. The geostationary satellite operators s around the world use the name Ku-Band for the band :

Bande Ku

Catégorie A: Montant= 13.75-14.5 GHz ; Descendant= 10.65-12.75 GHz


When operators of such satellites will ask for a SCId they will refer a Ku-Band mission, not ax X-Bands mission. CNES has a number of them among our assigned GSCIds.

At the minimum, this band should be identified specifically and, if you prefer to stick to IEEE and call it X-Band, a note or an abbreviation should associate that band to Ku-Geo.

Best regards

Thanks Osvaldo.

Let’s see if any of the other CMC members have issues.

Best regards, Peter

Hi Peter
Ok, yes I agree with you and I think we do not need to add the UL, DL is enough for the table
Thanks and best Regards

Dear Osvaldo,

Thanks for taking the time to evaluate and respond.  In this table we have only listed the downlink frequencies.   If everyone on the CMC feels it is important we could also list the uplink frequencies as well.  One thing I do note is that uplink and downlink often use different frequency bands, and I think that some of that shows up in some of the entries you put into the table.

The S-band numbers seem to be the same,  except that you did not distinguish near Earth and Deep Space.
The X-band is identical
The range you have listed as Ku band DL (10.7 to 12.75 GHz DL) actually seems to be within what IEEE calls the X-band range (7-12 GHz), but the uplink is within the Ku range (12-18 GHz)
The range you have listed as the Ka (COM-Band) DL 18.1 – 21.2 GHz actually seems to be within what IEEE calls the K band (18-27 GHz)

I think if we are going to reference these IEEE / ITU frequency bands that we should apply them, and use their names and ranges, uniformly across all agencies.  Regardless of the name that might be given to them in any country it is the frequency ranges that are the useful discriminator for our purposes.  Don’t you all agree?

Thanks, Peter

Hi Peter
I was checking the frequencies that we use with our antennas in Germany and there are some discrepancies, (in Red in Ku and Ka bands)
That is not the satellites but is the frequencies that we use to communicate with the satellites.
