| dc.description.abstract | The simulated antennas exhibited satisfactory radiation patterns (not shown in this abstract) for the mission envelope of a 3 km apogee model rocket. However, as can be observed in Figures 1(b), 2(b), and 3(c), the antennas are not adequately matched to the standard 50 Ω impedance, requiring further geometric optimization to ensure maximum power transfer. Therefore, future work will focus on optimizing the antenna geometries to achieve proper impedance matching and satisfactory gain. Subsequently, the antennas will be simulated integrated into the rocket CAD model to assess potential interference of the surrounding materials with signal transmission. | |
