The Establishment and Application of Shanghai 65m-diameter Radio Telescope Antenna

65m-diameter radio telescope antenna, which can be used in directive radio antenna of radio astronomy and will be used in tracking and collecting the data of satellite and space probe, was established in Shanghai in 2012 and finished the whole astronomical telescope project after 3 years.

65m-diameter Radio Telescope Antenna

ANTESKY has taken part in the partial manufacture and installment of antenna unit. The antenna structure consists of a pedestal and a reflector by coupling the pedestal and the reflector together. The antenna structure is designed with the FEM model that can be tested under various load conditions, as well as Chinese astronomical projects such as the Chang’e lunar exploration , YH-1 Mars exploration and other deep space exploration applications. The results show that the design of the antenna coincides with pointing accuracy and natural frequency requirements. This antenna has been completed the tracking and positioning tasks in the Chinese Moon probe project during in 2014. It can also receive Jupiter and Saturn exploration data.
