Modeling and Research of Satellite Antenna Adjustment Process for Earth Remote Sensing

Abstract

The paper concerns the analysis of the antenna system adjustment peculiarities. The method of checking the reflectors optical characteristics and their layout, as well as estimating the system capabilities composed of specific nodes are considered. The development of the methods and approaches to modeling process of large satellite antennas adjustment, assessing of their electrical parameters and finding the element's location that will provide the necessary antenna systems parameters is described. The practical implementation results of the authors' approaches to the antenna systems adjustment process are given.
