  Ku band Information
band (pronounced "kay-yoo" K-under band) is a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum in the microwave range of frequencies ranging from 12 to 18 GHz.
band is primarily used for satellite communications, particularly for satellite backhauls from remote locations back to a television network's studio for editing and broadcasting.
The band is split into multiple segments that vary by geographical region by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).

 Channels may get Ku band
The government, as part of the forthcoming television channel uplinking policy, is likely to allow them to use the high-capacity Ku band transponders for uplinking channels from India, allowing a sizeable reduction in their operational costs.
The Ku band, which is digital, can accommodate as many as 10-12 channels on a single transponder, as opposed to the analog C band, on which television channels now uplink, that accommodates just one.
The government had prohibited the use of Ku band transponders in 1998 for cable and satellite channels, when some companies, including Star India, had sought permission to start DTH operations in the country.

 Satellite TV - C Band
C band programs that are received by most of our viewers are the ones emitted in the Ku band belt.
Your C band receiver must have various options for LNB value tuning- universal, standard, C LNB, etc. Also it must be able to control the polarisator that has to be mechanic.
If you aren’t able to watch both C band and Ku band programs, but you want to, and there is no chance of installing to antennas, try installing both LNB’s on one antenna.

First introduced to the satellite communications industry in 1982, Seavey Engineering’s dual band antenna feeds are now the accepted standard.
Dual band feeds operate over the standard frequencies of 3.7 - 4.2 GHz in C-band and 10.7 - 12.75 GHz in 500 MHz bandwidths.
Seavey Engineering’s dual band feeds have been used on thousands of commercial and consumer TVRO antennas for many years attesting to the reliability and efficiency of the patented (see Note) design.

Satellites use a dual polarization transmission system to allow more efficient use of their equipment, this is termed frequency reuse (for further discussion on frequency reuse).
Another popular type feed is one that accepts multiple frequencies, usually C-band and Ku-band signals, this style feed is called a corotor and is a dual band feedhorn (sample receiver wiring for corotor system).
The style feed combining the dual C-band and single Ku-band LNBs (three in total, the Ku uses a servo) is called a 'dual C corotor' (sample receiver wiring for dual C, single Ku system); and a dual C/dual Ku (four LNBs total) is called a 'bullseye' feed.

 Ku Band
To avoid the congestion in C band, newer satellite communications satellites operate in the higher frequency bands such as Ku band
has the advantage that portions of the band are not shared with terrestrial radio networks and coordination is therefore not required.
While the link margin required depends on the actual frequency in use and the elevation angle (that is, on slant range through the atmosphere), as an indication, Ku-band link margins are of the order of 8 dB compared with approximately 2 dB required in C band.
