What is E-band and its applications

In the millimeter wave we find the V-band operating at 60GHz and the E-band operates in the 70/80 GHz frequency range. While at 60GHz a Strong oxygen (O2) peak absorption attenuation impacts the propagation behavior with the result of particularly short links limited to a range of hundreds of meters At 70/80GHz the attenuation falls back to less than 0.5 dB/km resulting in a more homogeneous behavior with respect to traditional microwave frequency bands. This offers a hop of a few Kilomerters similar to 38 or 42 GHz bands as far as propagation is concerned, varying on the expected rain intensity.

Traditional microwave radio for short haul link operates in bands from 18 GHz up to about 50 GHz. These frequency bands offer limited amount of bandwidth, typically 2 or 3 GHz, with channel arrangements between 3,5 to 56/112 MHz. even using high modulation scheme this implies the maximum capacity achievable to remain in the hundreds Mbps range.

In the E-band, the regulation foresees availability of 10 GHz spectrum, divided into 5+5 GHz portions, from 71 to 76 GHz and from 81 to 86 GHz. In this spectrum it is possible to address larger channel bandwidths with the consequence of delivering one Gigabit throughput with low modulation up to two Gigabits over a single channel.
