Abstract A new type of deployable parabolic t russ antenna is int roduced in this paper. Start with the analysis of the basic unit , the principle of the form of the whole antenna is presented. The deployable power of the the parabolic antenna is acted by the spring in the diagonal rod , and no need for extra force , so this type of deployable antenna has a wide range of application and a good prospect in deployable structures field.
