Which materials are used for the coating and for the conductive membrane in INFLATABLE reflector antennas ?

16 February 2017 1 6K Report

inflatable antennas are antennas that are inflated like balloon to form a reflector antenna.

The conductive layer on 'plastics' of all kind is typically aluminum. As for the balloons, typically Mylar ('BOPET') is used.

Wikipedia has some information, including about the IAE (Inflatable Antenna Experiment).

Hope this helps...
