Satellite Spacing - The No Parking Sign: A Report On The Problems And Some Solutions (1982)
By Gil Hodges, SAVAC International, Inc.
The text describes a novel optical design, featuring innovative reflex plates for small aperture (3m) antennas along.with new technology in feed horn design and application.
When used as a microwave antenna system, the design forces the antenna to assume the performance and radiation pattern characteristics of a much larger aperture, opening the door for small aperture use at 2° orbital spacing.
The design also incorporates a new combination of materials and ~manufacturing processes which have greatly expanded the operating frequency range, service life, and field maintenance of the system.
