Determine the transmission frequencies of technosignatures

Determine the frequencies at which extraterrestrial technosignatures are transmitted.

Background

The survey emphasizes the importance of broad frequency coverage because the transmission frequency of a technosignature is unknown. This unresolved uncertainty motivates searches such as the reported 25–50 GHz VLA survey and supports continued exploration across a wider portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.

References

As we do not know what frequency a technosignature would be transmitted at, covering as much of the electromagnetic spectrum is important.
