ABSTRACT:
A deployable spacecraft borne circular reflector structure comprises a plurality of plies of graphite fiber reinforced epoxy (GFRE) fibers, each ply comprising at least two layers of graphite epoxy reinforced fibers having quasi-isotropic properties. A circular ring of multiple layer plies of like construction as the reflector and having a U-shaped cross-section is bonded to the reflector rear surface adjacent the reflector peripheral edge. Each layer of each structure is formed from prepreg graphite fiber epoxy reinforced material.
