This paper reveals a new design of a meander line ultra-high frequency (UHF) nanosatellite antenna for nanosatellite communication, intended for potential applications in nanosatellite store and forward missions. The design utilizes a modified meander line as principal radiating element. Co planer waveguide feeding with LC impedance has been applied for impedance matching to result in a compact UHF antenna of 40 × 40 mm² dimension. The prototype is fabricated using Rogers 5880 and measured. The antenna achieved resonance at 900 MHz. Response of the antenna have been investigated in free space and while mounted with a nanosatellite structure. The antenna achieved resonance at 900 MHz in free space and at 896 MHz with the nanosatellite structure. This phenomenon has been analyzed considering a typical 1U nanosatellite body with the antenna. The antenna achieved positive realized gain of 0.74 dB at the resonant frequency with approximately 67% of radiation efficiency.

本文揭示了一种用于纳米卫星通信的弯折线超高频（UHF）纳米卫星天线的新设计，旨在用于纳米卫星存储和前途任务的潜在应用。该设计采用了修改后的曲折线作为主要辐射元件。已将具有LC阻抗的共面波导馈电用于阻抗匹配，从而形成了40×40 mm ²的紧凑型UHF天线尺寸。该原型使用Rogers 5880进行制造并进行了测量。天线在900 MHz处实现了谐振。天线的响应已经在自由空间中进行了研究，并且安装了纳米卫星结构。天线在900 MHz的自由空间和896 MHz的纳米卫星结构下实现了共振。考虑到典型的带有天线的1U纳米卫星，对这种现象进行了分析。天线在谐振频率下实现了0.74 dB的正实现增益，辐射效率约为67％。
