Abstract
The Integrated Solar Array and Reflectarray Antenna (ISARA) is a new deployable antenna designed to fit into a standard CubeSat bus. It does not occupy payload volume, provides spacecraft prime power and imposes only a modest impact on overall mass. Measured data indicates that the 3 panel configuration achieves 33.5 dB gain at 26 GHz. Measured radiation patterns are in good agreement with calculations.
