Gao, Steven, Rahmat-Samii, Yahya, Hodges, Richard E., Yang, Xue-Xia (2018) Advanced Antennas for Small Satellites. Proceedings of the IEEE, 106 (3). pp. 391-403. ISSN 0018-9219. (doi:10.1109/JPROC.2018.2804664) (KAR id:66226)

Abstract

Antenna is one of the key components onboard small satellites as its design determines the performance of all the wireless systems including telemetry, tracking and control, high-speed data downlink, navigation, intersatellite communications, intrasatellite communications, wireless power transfer, radars and sensors, etc. This paper presents a review of recent development in advanced antennas for small satellites (MiniSat, MicroSat, NanoSat, CubeSat, etc.). A number of recent examples of antennas for small satellite applications are shown and discussed. A conclusion and future development in antennas for small satellites are given in the end.
