Research abstract
Space Micro proposes to develop a space qualified antenna for CubeSat application. This antenna will meet all of the space environments including vacuum and radiation. It must be capable of integration with other space communications electronics and also compatible with CubeSat P-POD housing. Space Micro will perform test and evaluation of this antenna, followed by integration into a selected CubeSat mission.
