Abstract:

The accuracy of space reflector is significantly defined by structure of mechanical support frame [2, 3]. Naturally, during joint behavior of the ring and central shaping structure there are undesirable deformations. In other words, the mechanical ring components are undergoing bending due the impact of force factors. Therefore, for minimization or fully elimination of non-desired force factors is necessary to implement appropriate changes in the structure. Specifically for our case, we have considered a cone ring with V-fold bars combined with flexible triangular shapes cells center (In paper do not considered and for FEM analysis we have built approximate model).

Keywords: Space reflector; aperture; antenna; autonomous complex.
