Abstract

A combined shape control procedure with optimality criterion and integrated structural electromagnetic concept for cable mesh reflector antennas is presented in this study. Using the optimality criterion, the shape control algorithm drives the distorted surface towards the ideal shape. The optimality criterion is implemented by pseudo inverse of sensitivity matrix of surface nodal displacements with respect to cable member dimensions to accelerate the iterative convergence. The following integrated structural electromagnetic design is performed to make good electromagnetic performance by a sequential quadratic programming optimization model. A distorted offset cable mesh reflector antenna is employed to show its effectiveness.
