DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A THIN CONFORMAL C-BAND TELEMETRY ANTENNA FOR A SMALL DIAMETER MISSILE

摘要

This paper will present the preliminary design of a C-Band telemetry antenna mounted conformal to a small diameter missile. Various design studies and options will be explored leading to a preliminary design that best meets system requirements. Simulation results are presented for various options and the rationale for down selection to final configuration is discussed.
