Development of the standard CubeSat deployer and a CubeSat class PicoSatellite [PDF]
2001 IEEE Aerospace Conference Proceedings (Cat. No.01TH8542), 2002 Cal Poly students are participating in the development of a new class of picosatellite, the CubeSat. CubeSats are ideal as space development projects for universities around the world. In addition to their significant role in educating space scientists and engineers, CubeSats provide a low-cost platform for testing and space qualification of the next ...

MXene‐Coated 3D Printed Horn Antennas for Ku Frequency Band
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.An additive manufacturing approach to 3D printing horn antennas and coating them with Ti3C2Tx MXene is proposed. Rapid fabrication of lightweight, high‐performance antennas operating in the Ku‐band (12.4–18 GHz) has been demonstrated. The MXene‐coated antennas exhibit comparable electromagnetic performance to conventional, costly aluminum ones, with ...
