Modular reflector assembly for a reflector antenna
A modular reflector assembly (100) includes a shell (104) and a support frame (106). The modular reflector assembly (100) also includes a plurality of support links (108) that mechanically couple the shell (104) to the support frame (106). The shell (104) is thermally decoupled from the support fram...

| description | A modular reflector assembly (100) includes a shell (104) and a support frame (106). The modular reflector assembly (100) also includes a plurality of support links (108) that mechanically couple the shell (104) to the support frame (106). The shell (104) is thermally decoupled from the support frame (106) by the plurality of support links (108). The modular reflector assembly (100) may be part of a reflector antenna that may be mounted on a satellite. A front face of the shell (104) may be a reflective surface of the reflector. The support links may carry the launch loads including axial force, circumferential force and radial moment. On orbit, during temperature swings, the support links flex such that the support frame does not distort the shell. |
