USAF antenna on-orbit assemblyStructural concepts, upper stage evaluations, and orbiter packing are discussed for spacecraft having 300 ft to 1000 ft diameter sensors. Techniques are examined for stowing, deploying, and transferring to high earth orbit expandable hex, expanding tetrahedral ring, and fold out truss configurations. Upper stage final candidate configurations and their influence on antenna design selection are discussed.
