Various embodiments of the present invention include assemblies and methods for utilizing antennas with high gain in small satellites. In one embodiment, a satellite comprising a payload configured for transmitting data is provided. The payload may include various components of the satellite, such as the attitude control system, electrical power system, and/or communication system. The satellite may be configured to communicate with one or more ground stations. The satellite includes a support structure comprising at least one deployable panel, wherein the support structure houses the payload. The satellite also includes at least one antenna coupled to the support structure, wherein the deployable panel is configured to cover the antenna in a non-deployed state and to expose the antenna in a deployed state.
