1. A method for multiband wireless data transmission between an aircraft and one or more ground systems, the method comprising:

  • receiving a first data set at a first aircraft communication module;

    generating a first radio frequency (RF) signal based on the first data set,wherein the first RF signal is generated using the first aircraft communication module, andsending the first RF signal to a multiplexer connected to an aircraft broadband antenna positioned on an exterior of the aircraft;

    transmitting the first RF signal using the aircraft broadband antenna to a first ground system;

    receiving a second data set at a second aircraft communication module;

    generating a second RF signal based on the second data set,wherein the second RF signal is generated using a second aircraft communication module,sending the second RF signal to the multiplexer; and

    transmitting the second RF signal using the aircraft broadband antenna to a second ground system,wherein a wavelength range of the first RF signal is different from a wavelength range of the second RF signal.
