About
Large Space Structures (LSS) offers deployable antenna reflectors across four size categories, fitted with proprietary FlexRS reflecting-surface technology, usable up to Ka-band depending on category. The company is developing shaped deployable reflectors combining mesh-based designs with radiation pattern contouring, and in partnership with Thales Alenia Space, in-orbit reconfigurable reflectors using FlexRS Category III surfaces.
