Abstract. The paper deals with the justification of space antennas reflector layout for advanced telecommunication satellites. The selection of design decisions is based on numerical simulations of heat transfer and mechanics processes characteristic of the geostationary orbit conditions. The advantages of parabolic shell of small thickness reflector scheme reinforced with star-shaped ribs on the convex side are demonstrated.
