Cable-Stiffened Pantographic Deployable Structures Part 2: Mesh Reflector
The general concept of deployable structures based on pantographs that are deployed and stiffened by means of cables is applied to the design of the support structure for a large mesh re ̄ ector. The two main components of this structure are a cable-stiffened pantographic ring that deploys and pretensions a cable network that, in turn, provides a series of stiff, geometrically accurate support 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 کاملLarge 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 کاملElectronic News Gathering via a wireless broadband infrastructure
This paper describes a prototype system that enables for Electronic News Gathering applications through a wireless broadband networking infrastructure. The network makes use of the TCP/IP protocol stack and operates in the frequency band of 2.4GHz by utilising Spread Spectrum (SS) modulation technique. The use of the TCP/IP enables for various additional applications (e.g. videoconferencing), w...
متن کاملRapid Deployable Antenna Concept Selection for Cubesats
In this paper, we present a new graphical tool for the preliminary design of deployable CubeSat antennas aimed at coupling electromagnetic and structural antenna design. The proposed methodology predicts antenna performance characteristics using analytical expressions and compares them graphically against antenna geometric parameters. Such a technique allows the comparison and analysis of sever...
