Abstract

Space-borne antenna is an important component of satellite. The application of flexible materials opens up a new field for the structural design of this kind of antenna. Due to the light weight and high space storage rate of flexible structure, the deployment size of deployable antenna can be greatly improved by using this kind of structure. In this paper, the application of space deployable antenna with flexible reflector is studied, and the specific parameters and structural forms of this kind of deployable antenna which have been applied at present are introduced in detail.
