Problems solved by technology

The traditional antenna structure adopts a fixed structure antenna, and the entire antenna structure does not change before and after the satellite launch. Because the antenna structure is generally large in size and heavy in weight, it severely limits the volume and quality of the entire satellite system, thereby limiting the above-mentioned Applications of satellite systems

Abstract

The invention discloses an inflatable flexible antenna and a deployment method thereof. An antenna assembly is folded into a container before being deployed; an antenna system receives a deployment instruction after a satellite is launched; the container is opened to release the antenna assembly; and the antenna assembly is deployed under the action of a filling material and forms a spherical antenna structure body. Through the design structure, the emission volume and quality of the whole antenna system can be greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of antennas, in particular to an inflatable flexible antenna and a deployment method thereof. Background technique [0002] The antenna is the core part of the entire satellite communication system, which is related to the success or failure of the entire satellite system. The traditional antenna structure adopts a fixed structure antenna, and the entire antenna structure does not change before and after the satellite launch. Because the antenna structure is generally large in size and heavy in weight, it severely limits the volume and quality of the entire satellite system, thereby limiting the above-mentioned Applications of satellite systems. Contents of the invention [0003] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a foldable and unfoldable inflatable flexible antenna and a unfolding method thereof. [0004] An inflatable flexible antenna includes a box assembly, a drive mechanism and an antenna assembly, th...
