Abstract:The application field of space deployable antennas covers mobile communication, navigation, deep space exploration, etc. The traditional space deployable antenna mechanism deploys in a fixed way and mostly in a circular direction in order to expand the space deployable antenna configuration; this paper summarizes the bionic principle that can be used for antenna structure design by studying the tail feather deploying behavior of birds such as peacocks and proposes a new parabolic antenna configuration that imi… Show more
