Uses electromagnetic waves in the RF spectrum for data transmission. Essential for Earth-spacecraft links and inter-satellite communications.

Employs lasers to transmit data via light. Provides high data rates with less power and smaller equipment compared to RF.

A global network of large antennas and communication facilities that support interplanetary spacecraft missions.

A satellite network providing near-continuous communication links between the ground and low Earth orbit (LEO) spacecraft.

A two-way satellite ground station with a dish antenna that is typically less than 3 meters in diameter. Used for remote mission control and data transfer.

Uses a segment of the microwave radio region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Offers a balance between data rate and beam width, suited for deep-space communication.

A part of the microwave band of the electromagnetic spectrum, used for near-Earth space communications, providing moderate data rates.

Operates in the frequency range of 26.5–40 GHz, offering higher data rates for space communication but with increased susceptibility to weather effects.

Involves frequencies in the range of 300 MHz to 3 GHz. Primarily used for space-to-space and space-to-ground voice, telemetry, and radar.
