A small DLP antenna can support frequencies from 350 MHz to 2 GHz or more, while stowing as small as 1U of volume. Larger systems can support frequencies down to 100 MHz and lower. The deployable Log Periodic Membrane Array (LPMA) antenna consist of four membrane gores. Eliminating the lower frequency range dramatically reduces the deployed surface area. Slightly larger satellite platforms with increased attitude control capabilities may choose to take advantage of the increased gain offered by the LPMA in the 120 MHz – 300 MHz band. Both approaches target reliability and performance, while minimizing size, weight, and cost. The log periodic radiating structure not only meets the VHF band requirement, but holds the potential for significant bandwidth.
