“…A densidade dos laminados TMM6 e TMM10i da Rogers Corporation, utilizados nos projetos das antenas descritas em [4] e [7], são, respectivamente, 2,37 g/cm 3 e 2,77 g/cm 3 [12]. Já a densidade do laminado de RF Taconic CER-10, utilizado por [5], [6], [8] e no presente trabalho, possui densidade de 3,05 g/cm 3 [13]. As dimensões L e W das antenas descritas em [4], [5] e [6] são 20x20 cm, enquanto que, em [8], estas são 19x19 cm.…”

“…Além disso, a rede de antenas miniaturizadas possui um ganho maior do que as antenas descritas em [4]. Porém, obteve-se um menor ganho do que as antenas descritas em [6] e [8]. Contudo, em termos de massa total, a rede de antenas aqui descrita possui 40 % da massa total da rede sugerida em [6] eé mais leve que a rede de antenas descrita em [8].…”

“…Para ambas as antenas, foram considerados os substratos TMM6 e TMM10i da Rogers Corporation. Em [5] e [6],é proposta uma antena de microfita circularmente polarizada utilizando o laminado de RF Taconic CER-10, que tambémé utilizado nas antenas de microfita descritas em [8]. Já em [7], o elemento simples de uma antena circularmente polarizada foi projetado, sendo utilizado o laminado TMM10i.…”

“…The uplink channel for transmitting the data from the ground to the satellites works at 401 MHz (UHF) and a fourelement microstrip antenna array with extended ground plane has been designed for this purpose [4]. For the downlink channel, another microstrip array will be needed, since this link operates at 2.26 GHz (S-band).…”

In this paper, the design of an aperture-coupled microstrip antenna to be installed onto a nano-satellite is described. The proposed antenna has been optimized to operate at 2.26 GHz (S-Band), which is the operating frequency of the downlink channel of the Brazilian System for Meteorological Data Acquisition. The electromagnetic analysis is done by using HFSS software. For the design validation, prototypes were manufactured and the comparison between simulations and measurements indicates good performance of the proposed antenna.

The paper is mainly emphasizes on the microstrip patch antenna design for satellite applications. The specific objective of this study is to solve the research problem on finding the simple and compact design for small satellite application in real world. A new design of a Planar Inverted-F Antenna (PIFA) with the two height of 12mm and 10mm are proposed for low Earth orbit (LEO) applications in S band. The antenna is a single form antenna with the coaxial probe fed is used. CST Microwave Studio student version was used for the simulation of the antenna and matching design parameters. The antennas are obtained an efficient high return loss-18.426dB and-18.169dB at S11, the return loss bandwidth of 471MHz and 466MHz. The radiation pattern results are analyzed beam width angle 85.1° and 95.1°. Moreover, the peak directivity gain results 4.7dBi and 4.79dBi, the absolute E-filed radiation effect are also presented. The actual measurement results for S11 parameter of return loss-13.54dB and-14.2dB, return loss bandwidth of 510MHz and 425MHz are also fabricated with the comparison of simulation and fabrication process of PIFA antenna characteristics. The measurement of the return loss (S11) and return loss bandwidth were almost identical with the simulation.
