Integrated Solar-Panel Antenna Array for CubeSats

The goal of the Integrated Solar-Panel Antenna Array for CubeSats (ISAAC) project is to design and demonstrate an effective optically transparent, high-gain, lightweight, conformal X band antenna array that is integrated with the solar panels of a CubeSat. The targeted demonstration is for a Near Earth Network (NEN) radio at X-band, but the design can be easily scaled to other network radios for higher frequencies. ISAAC is a less expensive and more flexible design for communication systems compared to a deployed dish antenna or the existing integrated solar panel antenna designs.

Small Spacecraft Technology Program

The Small Spacecraft Technology Program (SSTP) develops and demonstrates new capabilities employing the unique features of small spacecraft for science, exploration and space operations. Small spacecraft represent an emerging class of satellites, robots and systems that exploit their small size to take advantage of ridesharelaunch opportunities at reduced cost.Small spacecraft also utilize the growingamount of technical capabilities that weare witnessing in the high technology and electronics industries. As a result,small spacecraft and platforms arebecoming more and more capable as their overall size continues to decrease.
