Zusammenfassung:A deployable antenna system comprised of a pair of independently flexible membranes carrying elements of the antenna system, apparatus fixed to corresponding extremity locations of the membranes for stretching the membranes taught and flat, spacers rigidly fixed to corresponding facing locations on the membranes, the locations being selected such that a line passing through each of the spacers is orthogonal to the surface of the membranes when the membranes are stretched, and at another angle to the surface when the membranes are either relaxed or one membrane is shifted laterally to the other.
