Abstract :
This paper examines antenna system layout methodologies that support antenna designs and configurations on advanced high capacity spacecraft with the goal of providing multi-frequency, multi-polarization and multi spot beams such that the bandwidth flexibility, high throughput communication links, area coverage and EMC compatibility of the antenna systems are optimized whilst also minimizing cost.
