Abstract :
The evolution of satellite antennas in Europe and elsewhere has been impressive over the last decade. Whilst the authors treat this development with regard to the European scene, the advances and trends are globally common. The European Space Agency is actively engaged in the development of satellites and spacecraft for scientific, earth observation and communications missions
