Abstract
In this paper, we present the antenna design for a nano-satellite mission launched in September, the GOMX-3 mission. Some of the key design challenges
are discussed and the chosen solutions are presented. In an effort to minimize development and manufacturing costs for future missions, this study shows
how to modify off the shelf components in order to tailor them to the specifications of the mission at hand. The performance of the antenna is increased by up to 1.4 dB with a simple modification to adjust the resonance frequency. The antenna system’s performance is investigated through simulation and measurement and the results indicate that the design meets specification requirements.
