What is L-Band and Why Do We Use It?
The L-band is the frequency window of the microwave and radio spectrum that is used by Global Navigation Satellite Systems. Chosen for its ability to penetrate through the atmosphere, the L-band is divided into many sub-bands that can be tuned into by different PNT devices, and is also used to send correction data via satellite.
Correction data is used in surveying and navigation to enhance the accuracy of GNSS. Learn here about what types of errors it fixes, how you can use correction data in your projects, and the difference between DGNSS, RTK, SBAS, and PPP
