Advances in Lightweight Design of Spaceborne Antenna Structure
In this paper the lightweight design methods of spaceborne antenna structures in recent years are reviewed,the development status of lightweight design of spaceborne antenna structures is summarized and the application situation of rigid reflector antennas and phased array antennas is introduced.Then,the research progress of antenna structure lightweight is described in detail from antenna configuration design,advanced materials,space structures,3D printing,structure-function integrated design,etc.Finally,some scientific problems in the aerospace field which need further considering are pointed out and the development prospect of antenna structure lightweight design are prospected,which can provide reference for advanced space structure development.
