摘要
Design and development have been completed on the antenna subsystem for the Intelsat V Communications Satellite. The communications antennas include two C-band (transmit and receive) hemi/zone coverage antennas, two C-band (transmit and receive) earth coverage antennas, two 11/14 GHz spot beam antennas and an 11 GHz beacon antenna. The C-band telemetry and command antennas consist of two directional beam telemetry (transmit) antennas, a dual-port toroidal beam telemetry antenna, and two cardioid beam command (receive) antennas. The designs have been verified by measurements, and the test results indicate that all major performance requirements will be achieved. Recently, an L-band antenna which provides earth coverage has been introduced. This link, which will provide communications with ships at sea, will be introduced on the FM-5 (flight model five) spacecraft. Performance for this antenna is described.
