The construction of an rf anechoic chamber at NRL presented an opportunity to study, in detail, satellite turnstile antennas. This study was conducted in three phases: research, prototype development and testing, and flight model satellite tests. As a result of this program it was found that the satellite size and shape and the rf harness had a profound effect on the pattern. Tests on the flight model satellites confirmed observations made during the research and development phase. (Author)
