DESCRIPTION:Conformal Integration of antennas with solar panels has wide ap
 plications\, from small spacecraft\, Mars rovers\, to self-powered wireles
 s sensors. It is particularly beneficial when the surface real estate is a
  major challenge\, such as a CubeSat. A strategic integration not only red
 uces the development cost\, promotes a robust communication link\, but als
 o increases the mission capacity by allowing more science instruments to b
 e mounted on the CubeSat.\n\nThis lecture covers different conformal anten
 na designs for solar panel integration\, from UHF to Ka band. It includes 
 antennas integrated under solar cells\, around solar cells\, and optically
  transparent antennas integrated on top of solar cells. It also covers low
  gain and high gain design. The high gain design mainly focuses on reflect
 array antenna\, which may be beneficial to those who wishes to study the s
 ubject.\n\nAs these antennas are integrated with solar panel\, a unique an
 d complex subsystem\, effects of solar cells on the antenna and vice versa
  need to be analyzed and quantified. The lecture presents analysis of a ty
 pical space-certified solar cell\, extracted model\, experimental set-up t
 o quantify the interaction between solar cells and the integrated antennas
