DESCRIPTION:CubeSat Antennas— from Link Budget Analysis to Orbits\n\nCube
 Sats are modular and standardized modern small satellites. They have been 
 gaining steady popularity as educational projects\, low-cost space explora
 tion vehicles for technology demonstrations\, multi-point observations of 
 space environment\, and monitoring/reporting proper deployment of expensiv
 e deep space instruments.\n\nAntennas are critical components for CubeSat 
 missions and provide some or all of the following functions: telemetry\, t
 racking\, command (TT\\&amp;C)\, high speed downlink for payload data\, receiv
 ing positioning data\, and inter-satellite cross links. To provide reliabl
 e and effective antenna solutions\, it is important to understand basics o
 f CubeSat development cycle and link budget analysis.\n\nThe objective of 
 this presentation is to offer a tour of several recent CubeSat missions an
 d antenna designs for spacecraft\, ground station\, and radio beacon. The 
 designs are guided by the link budget analysis\, material selection\, and 
 form factors specific to each application.\n\nBio\n\nDr. Reyhan Baktur is 
 an associate professor at the department of Electrical and Computer Engine
 ering (ECE)\, Utah State University (USU). Her research interests include 
 antennas and microwave engineering with a focus on antenna design for Cube
 Sats\; optically transparent antennas\; multifunctional integrated antenna
 s\, sensors\, and microwave circuits.\n\nShe is affiliated with the Center
  for Space Engineering at USU\, the Space Dynamics Laboratory (the univers
 ity affiliated research center)\, and collaborates with NASA Goddard Space
  Flight Center.\n\nDr. Baktur is an an IEEE Antennas and Propagation (APS)
  Distinguished Lecturer of 2022-2024\, AdCom member of IEEE APS\, and is a
 ctive in US National Committee of the International Union of Radio Science
 \, serving as the vice chair for commission B\, and the inaugural chair fo
