Slotted Waveguide Antenna for Inter Satellite Link

Nowadays, in inter-satellite link systems (ISL), the task of developing radio equipment with high specifications under severe limitations on power consumption and dimensions is relevant. The selection of the antenna system type is crucial when addressing this issue. This paper presents a compact waveguide slot antenna for ISL operating in the frequency range of 22.6-23.2 GHz. The paper presents the simulation results of the antenna as well as the developed configuration Nowadays, in inter-satellite link systems (ISL), the task of developing radio equipment with high specifications under severe limitations on power consumption and dimensions is relevant.
