Abstract :
Continuous affordability is a new demand for space applications, therefore, some new kinds of lightweight large deployable mesh reflectors are frequently used in recent years. Here we make system design and simulation of a new kind of space large deployable reflector antenna that we proposed recently. System design shows its several superior outstanding advantages. Simulations of deploying ability, surface precision, and antenna performance, all reveal that such kind of deployable antenna has potential foreground in future space applications.
