Abstract

The invention relates to a satellite dispenser and a method of supporting a plurality of satellites. The satellite dispenser includes a central tubular structure. The satellite dispenser also includesa plurality of satellites arranged around the central tubular structure. The satellite dispenser further includes a plurality of shear connectors coupling the central tubular structure and the plurality of satellites arranged together in shear continuity.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to launching and deploying satellites, and more particularly, to a satellite dispenser and method of supporting a plurality of satellites during launch and deployment. Background technique [0002] Many modern communication systems utilize a group of individual satellites, often referred to as a constellation of satellites, that must be placed in their respective orbits and work together. However, launching satellites into space is relatively expensive. One way to reduce the cost of launching satellites is to launch two or more satellites on a single launch vehicle. One method of launching multiple satellites with a single launch vehicle is by stacking multiple satellites vertically within the launch vehicle. One disadvantage of this arrangement is the relatively high bending loads transferred to the stacked satellites during takeoff and ascent. [0003] Another method of launching multiple satellites with a single la...
