Ku-band permits the use of smaller antennas that are aesthetically better and much cheaper than C-band. A typical Ku-band antenna is 1.2/1.8m and a typical C-band antenna ranges from 1.8m, 2.4m, 3.8m etc. Ku-band requires less radio power than C-band to provide the same signal stength thus allowing a smaller antenna. The cost of C-band equipment and installation is normally 3 times that of Ku-band. C-band installations are huge and costly to install.

C Band: The uplink frequencies ranged from 5925 to 6425 MHz. The downlink frequencies ranged from 3700 to 4200 MHz, providing 500 MHz of bandwidth in each direction. This freq region is overlaps with terrestrial microwave communication systems.. This situation causes interference between C-Band and terrestrial microwave communication systems.

We are in Canada, and can only bill through the credit card system in C$, not US$. Our site shows US$ prices because most people worldwide are used to comparing prices in that currency, and about 95% of our business is exported outside of Canada, so this only makes sense, as few people outside of Canada know the value of our dollar. Our Visa/MC is done in C$, however, very sorry. Exchange rates fluctuate considerably, and over the last few years have gone from C$1.40/C$1.08 to US$1.00. See similar questions...

X-band and C-band data are processed in a similar way from a mathematics point of view. The basic computer processes are the same. There are differences in the type of processing equipment and location of the processing equipment. They each produce similarly formatted data products. The horizontal accuracy of SRTM posts is only weakly related to the accuracy of GPS. See similar questions...

C# is a new language designed by Microsoft to work with the .NET framework. In their "Introduction to C#" whitepaper, Microsoft describe C# as follows: C# is a simple, modern, object oriented, and type-safe programming language derived from C and C++. C# (pronounced "C sharp") is firmly planted in the C and C++ family tree of languages, and will immediately be familiar to C and C++ programmers. C# aims to combine the high productivity of Visual Basic and the raw power of C++. See similar questions...

C++ is as close as possible to compatible with C, but no closer. In practice, the major difference is that C++ requires prototypes, and that f() declares a function that takes no parameters (in C, a function declared using f() can be passed an arbitrary number of parameters of arbitrary types). There are some very subtle differences as well, like sizeof('x') is equal to sizeof(char) in C++ but is equal to sizeof(int) in C. See similar questions...
