Data transfer[edit]
ADEOS II transferred data to and from Artemis and the Data Relay Test Satellite (DRTS). The Artemis connection transferred information over a 26 GHz Ka band link (for payload data) and a 2 GHz S band link (for telemetry, tracking and control data).[2]
These signals were then downlinked to the Earth Observation Center (EOC) via feeder link stations and the Redu Station.[2] ADEOS II also sent mission data directly to NASA stations, which routed information to bodies such as the EOC and sensor-providing organisations.[2]
