| Abstract(in English) | The Engineering Test Satellite VIII(ETS-VIII) which is a three-ton class and geostationary satellite is scheduled to be launched in the term of 2002 year. The development of large deployable antenna in the ETS-VIII program is important to realize mobile communications system with hand-held terminals. Conceptual study was finished and the development stage of the program is now that of definition design. The large deployable antenna on conceptual study in the term of 1996 year was selected modular structure because it is satisfied requirement of precise reflector surface and diametral extension. The large antenna reflector consists of 19 modular structure and the outside diameter is 17.4m×16.1m. The results of conceptual study obtained that there is no problem for folding dimension, weight, stiffness and strength. Bread Board Model is fabricated based on the definition design and subject to tests for that realization can be confirmed in the future. |
