Review of Large Spacecraft Deployable Membrane Antenna Structures
The demand for large antennas in future space missions has increasingly stimulated the development of deployable membrane antenna structures owing to their light weight and small stowage volume. However, there is little literature providing a comprehensive review and comparison of different membrane antenna structures. Space-borne membrane antenna structures are mainly classified as either para...
متن کاملAntenna Scanning B ehniques for Estimation of Spacecraft Position
Scanning movements are added to a tracking antenna's trajectory to estimate the true spacecraft position. T h e scanning movements are composed of the harmonic axial movements of an antenna. This motion produces power variations of t he received signal, which are used to estimate the spacecraft's position. Three different scanning patterns (conical scan, Lissajous scan, and rosette s can ) are ...
متن کاملComparing Antenna Conical Scan Algorithms for Spacecraft Position Estimation
I NTHISNote,wewill examine nonlinear estimation techniques to solve nonlinear problems that have been traditionally solved by linear methods. In the area of nonlinear estimation, a class of sampling algorithms known asMarkov chainMonte Carlo (MCMC) was extensively used to obtain a solution that is often a general, nonGaussian, nonunimodal probability distribution. Therefore, there is a natural ...
متن کاملWaves: the Radio and Plasma Wave Investigation on the Wind Spacecraft
The WAVES investigation on the WIND spacecraft will provide comprehensive measurements of the radio and plasma wave phenomena which occur in Geospace. Analyses of these measurements, in coordination with the other onboard plasma, energetic particles, and field measurements will help us understand the kinetic processes that are important in the solar wind and in key boundary regions of the Geosp...
متن کاملDesign and Fabrication of Plasma Array Antenna with Beam Forming
In this paper, the design and implementation of plasma antenna array with beam forming is discussed. The structure consists of a circular array of plasma tube enclosed in a unipolar UHF band monopole antenna. Beam forming is possible by stimulated plasma tubes. The combination of the above antenna with plasma excitation controller makes a beam forming smart antenna. An experimental model in UHF...
