Large Aperture , Solid Surface Deployable Reflector
Composite Technology Development Inc. (CTD) is currently funded through the NASA Advanced Component Technology (ACT) program to develop an off-set fed, TEMBO continuous composite surface deployable reflector for earth science applications. This type of reflector will offer a parabolic surface with the accuracy needed for RF science measurements to Ka band and beyond, including a clean aperture ...
متن کاملTheoretical Analysis of Polarization Rotation angle in Dual Reflector Antenna
Because of special structure, a dual reflector antenna has beam rotation capability in azimuth and elevation directions. In this structure, the antenna beam can be placed in any point in the space by mechanical movement of twist reflector which it is the most important ability of the antenna. Due to the antenna structure, if the polarization of incident wave is linear, it is expected that the p...
متن کاملUltra Thin Deployable Reflector Antennas
We have recently proposed a new concept for deployable reflectors consisting of a thin parabolic carbon-fibre-reinforced-plastic (CFRP) shell stiffened along the edge by an elastically collapsible stiffener. Here we show that a stiffener accounting for less than 10% of the total mass of the reflector increases the stiffness of the softest deformation mode of the deployed reflector by 48 times, ...
متن کاملReview 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 کاملDesign and Efficient Analysis of Large Reflectarray Antenna
In recent years reflectarray antennas have received considerable attention due to their unique capabilities. However, due to their large size, analyzing the performance of these antennas using traditional full wave finite-difference and finite-element techniques requires considerable computational resources. In this paper, we present an efficient method to accurately analyze these class of ante...
