Abstract

The TT&C antenna of spacecraft is used to receive command signals and to transmit telemetry signals between spacecraft and earth station. Based on the introduction of the characteristics of spacecraft TT&C antennas, this chapter also provides several commonly used TT&C antennas, including S-band dual-arm helical antenna, S-band quadrifilar helical antenna, S-band cavity-backed dipole antenna, C-band coaxial-slot double-cone-disk antenna, and other TT&C antennas, which are used in both low and high-orbit satellites.
